Accutane: It used to be Minimal safe period of 2 years after stopping Accutane. Even if taken for a short period Your Dermatologist must have had you sign to that effect. Get his opinion before getting pregnant. It may have changed now. You must have signed the " I PLEDGE" agreement with the Dr — "Be Prepared, Be Protected" and "Be Aware: The Risk of Pregnancy While on Isotretinoin"
