Serious health problems or birth defects from Accutane
Like so many wonder drugs, Accutane has proved too good to be true. Although it has been effective in treating severe acne, the medication has also been linked to serious side effects resulting in severe or permanent harm, and even deaths.
If you or your child suffered adverse and lasting harm from the drug Accutane (or one of the generic equivalents), you may be entitled to compensation for the medical, personal and financial impact.

Accutane is a powerful drug of last resort for chronic or scarring acne that does not respond to other treatment. Unfortunately, the acute reactions or side effects sometimes far outweigh the benefits. Adults and teenagers, including women who were taking Accutane during pregnancy, have experienced a range of adverse health effects, including:
- Birth defects, premature birth or miscarriage
- Depression or suicidal tendencies
- Liver damage
- Crohn's disease or inflammatory bowel disease
- Bone fractures and orthopedic problems
- Vision impairment or hearing loss
