A member asked:
Is severe lightheadedness due to taking accutane?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not common: I have treated patients with Accutane (isotretinoin) for many years and have not heard that particular complaint. Theoretically any medicine can cause just about any side effect but i really haven't seen that one. I would talk this over with your dermatologist.
