What dose are you on? You could try dropping the dose? I was only on 20mg a day but my lips were unbearably dry and my face went dry and rough textured. I’ve dropped to 10mg a day and finding it much easier

30mg. I’m only two weeks 3 days in so I need to manage the symptoms.

Do you not have contact details for your dermatology nurse? I'd call them and ask them for advice, I had to reduce my dose when I had side effects. I used coconut oil on my scalp when mine was really dry and flaky.
