A member asked:

Took isotretinoin for acne for 1 month. was out in the sun and skin got very itchy. i still have to go out at times (work in army). should i continue?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No: Isotretinoin(Accutane) is a serious medication that requires monitoring by a professional. While sun sensitivity is not common, you should stop taking it until you can consult with your prescribing physician.
