A member asked:

My mom is wondering if she can put foundation on her face while being treated for her acne with pills of isosupra containing lidose 16mg?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

I beliveve "Yes": Isosupra lidose is strong stuff, and i'm not a dermatologist, but i know enough of the physiology to believe this shouldn't be a problem. Doublecheck with the dermatologist who prescribed the isosupra.
