what is the general course dosage and what would be considered a light dosage?

also any idea on this:

and once you are off will they just keep returning?

/need to go read them side affects

heavy course is I think 3 tablets a day for three months. Light course is two tablets per day for 3 months. Not sure what that equates to in mg.

And yes, you can ask your doctor to put you on it without much hassle. If its the first time you using it, you will need to go for blood tests as I believe it can affect your liver or kidneys or something like that. But its no big deal and in all likelihood you wont have those bad effects.

And no, the acne will not return in all likelihood. if it does, it will be a hell of a lot less than before. So maybe one pimple every month or so. But definately nowhere near as bad as before treatment. And if it does return with the same degree as before, that will take years! Mine got a little out of hand (nowhere near as bad as the first time before my first treatment) where I had to go on a second course 13 years after my first course.

Those side effects will get worse. labelo (the one in the white container) and aqueous cream. That is all you need. Stay out of the sun also. Acne will get worse before it gets better though. So dont worry if it gets a little worse first.

Labello is horrific, use something that does not sit onto of your lips, zumbuck cherry flavour is awesome.

The white labello (think its called medical or something like that) doesnt sit onto your lips if my understanding of what you trying to say is correct.
