I've been taking 40 mg per day of roaccutane (Accutane) for my acne for two months now. Does skipping a day or two of taking it effect the treatment?
What happens if you skip a day or two of taking roaccutane for acne?

Hello,
I agree with masso. But how are you doing on accutane? I took accutane couple years ago and I remembered the dryness of lips and eye pains:(. Overall, it’s very effective for acne.

Thanks for the comment. I"m doing good. The only symptoms I have are dry lips and dry skin on my arms. Yes, so I hear:) Hope it will help me.

Accutane stays in your system for several days and missing a few days (or even weeks) will not impact the final outcome.
