Hi. i have 2 weeks left of my acnetane 20mg. i wanted to find out is there any tablet i can go on to flush it out of my system and a cream for my face?

Isotretinoin: Or acnetane, has a half life of 21 hours, so it will take 5-6 half lives to be cleared out of your system, (5-6 days) and no need to flush it out. As for the cream and management of your acne, a dermatologist has to examine you for better management of your case, best wishes
