If i stop taking isotretinoin for a week (acne treatment drug) will my skin get really bad?

Posted by admin

I run out of tablets tomorrow, ive been taking the 40mg a day for 16 weeks now. My appointment with my doctor isn’t for another week though. Will my skin start getting really bad again while I await the next prescription?

    Not likely in one week, but at 40 mg, you may have side effects when you start taking it again…
