A member asked:
Confused. derm told me accutane doesn't raise bilirubin after mentioning my concern due to a raise in both during my 6th month. is this true?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Details are everythi: EXACTLY what are the levels of direct and indirect bilirubin??? What do the other tests show? SYMPTOMS??? Usual course of isotretinoin [Accutane] is FIVE [5] months. What dose do you take? See a Dr if there is abnormal liver function. Absolutely no alcohol. Stop Accutane until this is resolved. You are already past 5 months anyway.

I am confused. Articles say Accutane is out of your system after one month but some articles also say Accutane is like vitamin a so it stores in your body up to 6 months. Whats is correct?
I know it is well documented that drinking alcohol when on accutane isn't a great idea. One derm said recreational party drugs, whilst a bad idea in general for your health, are probably not much extra worse when on roaccutane? true?
My derm told me I would be at the same risk as a normal person from drinking alcohol 3 days after I finish accutane. Is this correct? Some doctors on forums suggest similar time periods whilst others suggest waiting far longer?
