A member asked:
Can i use a gentle topical acne cream during my early months of isotretinoin therapy when the acne usually gets worse before it gets better?

Certainly: However this may result in excessive dryness and a good non comedogenic moisturizer is highly recommended.

Yes.: In fact, most people treated for acne get topical meds even if they take oral meds.
