A member asked:

Is it safe to drink apple cider a vinegar while on isotritenoin? and is it safe also to apply apple cider vinegar on acne as long as it is diluted in water? thank you

A doctor has provided 1 answer

See below: I would not recommend ingestion of apple cider vinegar. There are reports of esophageal burns, and there are better and safer ways to obtain probiotics (yogurt, etc.)
