A member asked:

Can i keep taking isotretinoin during ramadan? i'm afraid u won't be getting enough fluids during the night?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Isotretinoin: Oral isotretinoin can dry the skin out a lot, if you intend not eat or drink during the day then you might want to talk to your dermatologist about stopping temporarily the isotretinoin
