Can i use the purpose facial cleanser on accutane?

Sure!: The key to doing anything to your face while on Accutane is gentle. You are sensitive while on the med so gentle soaps with no scrubbing and then a moisturizer after.

Accutane: Generally the answer would be yes but you should check with your dermatologist who is prescribing the Accutane for you.
