A member asked:
If i use african black soap while taking accutane will the soap counteract the medicines job in the long run? maybe with the soaps oils?

No: Use any skin cleanser which is not drying or irritating. You will need something for dry skin, especially for your lips and possibly inside your nose. Don't spend a lot of money on soap because you just need something not too caustic. Ask your dermatologist for samples.
