Accutane Side Effects

Accutane side effects include IBD, Crohn's Disease and Ulcerative Colitis

Weitz & Luxenberg attorneys are currently investigating cases involving people who took Accutane and were subsequently diagnosed with inflammatory bowel disease, Crohn's Disease or ulcerative colitis. If you or a loved one has a gastrointestinal disease that may be one of the Accutane related side effects, please complete the form on this page for important information about your legal rights to seek compensation for your illness.

In 1982, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) first approved the use of Accutane (known generically as Isotretinoin) to treat patients with severe nodular acne that does not respond to other oral or topical medications. Since the drug was approved, thousands of patients suffering from cystic acne successfully completed courses of treatment with the drug.

In the 25+ years since the drug has been on the market, the FDA, medical researchers and investigators have since discovered a number of serious Accutane related side effects. Tragically, many former Accutane patients are only now learning that their pain and suffering due to Crohn's Disease, inflammatory bowel disease or ulcerative colitis is linked to their acne treatment decades earlier.
