Many people familiar with EC also know that one of the side effects of Accutane is dry lips or even EC. There have been two "cure" posts recently in regards to aquaphor and lactic acid treatment. I feel we should make a distinction between the two because obviously we know that the Accutane was the cause of the EC while in many other cases EC has happened without really knowing the cause. So, I think we should judge the Accutane cures differently and with a grain of salt esp. if we haven't used Accutane.
