subject: Accutane-caused Inflamatory Bowel Disease Has Plagued Many Former Patients [print this page] After being diagnosed with an inflamatory bowel disease, like Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis, many former Accutane patients realize that in addition to their painful IBD symptoms they may also be faced with difficult financial challenges. The medical bills associated with ongoing treatment can be very high and as the price of healthcare continues to rise, these challenges become even more pronounced.

It took far too long for Accutane patients to learn of the risks of the medication and this isn't something that Roche Pharmaceuticals should get away with.

Regardless, their lack of Accutane warnings about the increased risk of an inflamatory bowel disease and that's something they should be held responsible for.
