I was wondering what kind of vitamins and other pills people might be taking or have taken while on accutane... ive heard something about vitamin e..and some others. Any recomendations and reasons why their good..? thanks

I take a lot. I take

- regular multivitamin: has everything in it, or at least most stuff, so it helps keep me healthy!
- B-complex: Mainly I take it for reasons other than Accutane-management
- vitamin E: I hear good things, so I take it, not sure if it does anything; supposedly helps immune system
- biotin: same as Vitamin E; might help hair
- Lots and lots of fish oil pills: helps skin, joints, energy levels & depression, memory, manage triglycerides (a potential problem w/ Accutane), manage coexisting eczema & rashes, and probably other things I've forgotten to mention.
