I am currently in a foreign country and i am having trouble communicating to the the doctor that i am on accutane. I have an eye infection and have been given a tetracycline antibiotic. So i plan on stopping my course and healing my eye. How long do I need to wait?

Please be careful! Taking tetracycline with Accutane is very very dangerous! It can cause a form of swelling in the brain called benign intracranial hypertension. PLEASE go back to another doctor to get more advice and a different antibiotic NOT from the Tetracycline family. That doctor was an idiot!! What country are you in? What language?
