I took two 5-mos. therapies of accutane. accutane.
It does NOT even have a CASUAL link to mood. My mood was never affected at all.
It does NOT have any casual link to mood.
And oil is not necessarily the cause for acne. People can have dry skin and still have acne. Or oily skin and no acne. There's no casual link between acne and oil, either.
And NO, that 15 year old DID NOT have Accutane in his blood at the time of crashing his plane.
Millions of teens take this drug, trust me, we'd know by know if there was any casual relationship-- the real problem is that some kids take it with pre-existing depressive conditions that are not diagnosed, they commit suicide, and their parents go "oh, must be these evil acne pills."
