I am on my 10th day of isotretinoin (40mg/day) and I have noticed that at about day 7, dry skin has started to appear. I am getting a few new pimples, which I expected. I was wondering that since dry skin is inevitable, does it solely cause more pimples to form during the usage of this pill? I am using a face moisturizer but I am worried that dry skin could be the reason for pores being clogged. Is moisturizer even all that necessary or should I keep on using it even though I'll still have dry, flaky skin? Please reply and thanks!

You're going to break out pretty Damn bad at first. Hell I'm breaking out and I'm at 5 months! The dryness is going to come no matter what you do. I've tried all the heavy duty moisturizers. None work anymore. Good luck!
