Hello,

If, for any reason, I stop Accutane for a week or so, will that mean that my course was inturupted and that I need to start over?

What is the maxixmum period of time that I can stop it with out jeopradising the results I'm getting.

Don'y tell me as your doctor, I forgot to, and my next appointment is not so soon.

thank you.

Accutane stays in your body for up to a month.

You can stop accutane for a while and resume it. The recommended maximum length is one and a half week,maybe two.
