So i accidentally ate some sweet potato fries today (and I am on day 7 of 20mg accutane). Will it cause any issues?

It shouldn't. I was told that I don't have to avoid foods with vitamin A, just eat them in moderation... and you being only a week in, it shouldn't affect anything.

That's not enough vitamin A to have any effect. If you were eating polar bear liver and downing it with carrot juice, then you might have a problem with too much Vitamin A. One serving of sweet potato fries won't do anything bad.
