What is best sun block to use while taking accutane?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Spf 30: Hi good morning, it is recommended that you use an spf over 30 everyday particularly when you are on medication that will make you sun sensitive. But please don't forget to reapply every two hours. You might need to reapply more often if you are doing any heavily activity which involves sweating or if you are in the water. I hope that helps.
