I have been on a low dose accutane treatment for 2 weeks now. (20mg/day) Last night i drank a lot and did laughing gas at a party, i didn't take the accutane before i went out and am continuing to take it from now on after missing that one night. I feel out of breath with a tight chest and was wondering if anyone had any similar experiences and what happened when they drank alcohol? please let me know what you think.
Hi - the out of breath feeling might be your recovering from the laughing gas and/or run of the mill hangover. Drinking while on accutane is generally not encouraged, but it probably won't cause any lasting damage if you are not making a daily habit of it. Accutane probably. If the SOB gets worse or you feel light headed, you should probably head to a clinic.
