Question for anyone who took Accutane as a juvenile or younger?

Hi,

I'm a bit concerned about certain reports that claim that Accutane can make youthful patients (who are still growing) stop growing by prematurely fusing their growth plates.

I took Accutane when I was 15 and didn't grow at all after then but am unsure of whether this be just natural or whether it was an adverse side effect of Accutane.

So my press is to all other people who took Accutane before the age of 17.
Did you grow surrounded by height at all (even a cm) during or after taking Accutane?

What dosage did you take (e.g. 1mg per kg per day) and for how plentiful months?
( I took 1mg per kg per day, which worked out to around 60mg per day for me).

It would really help me if you could put in the picture me of your experiences so I'd really appreciate it.

Thanks
Answers:
I took it when I was a teenager but I don't remember the dosage or age, but I don't remember my growth stopping.
i am 15 and am currently taking accutane. i help yourself to 60mg a day and i have grown while taking the medicine. I probably grew lone half a centimeter though.
