Accutane or generic Accutane can lead to many harmful side effects, and one is IBS or irritable bowel syndrome.

Also known as "spastic colon," IBS impacts the colon's motility or muscle contractions. Acne treatment users of Accutane or generic Accutane in South Carolina may not need a skilled South Carolina Accutane lawyer for IBS, but likely will for an IBD or inflammatory bowel disease.
Included among the most hurtful Accutane side effects is an inflammatory bowel disease or IBD called Ulcerative Colitis. In addition known by the name of UC, Ulcerative Colitis represents inflammation and ulceration of the inner lining of the large intestine. The UC's inflammation, ulcers and sores additionally may spark anemia and rectal bleeding, in addition to weight loss, fatigue and joint pain.
People suffering UC likely will endure bloody diarrhea and severe abdominal distress. Still more victims may suffer another IBD called Crohn's Disease. Those casualties of dangerous pharmaceutical product Accutane or generic Accutane should consult an experienced South Carolina Accutane attorney.
