Can I use Sudocrem and/or germolene on spots whilst taking Roaccutane?

I'm wondering if I could use either germolene or sudocrem on my spots, scars and red parts of my skin, to help them heal faster. Will using these whilst on Accutane be ok, or should I avoid doing so?

I wouldn't

my derm told me sudocrem was actually really bad for acne. Just let Accutane do its thing, your skin will be so sensitive that things that dry it out further (like sudocrem) could have a bad reaction. You're on Accutane, you don't need anything else for now, so relax and enjoy the fact you don't have to apply anything topically for the next few months :)

Thanks for the reply. I will avoid doing so then, as I don't want to risk getting even dryer skin.

and thanks ^^ nice Final Fantasy (I think?) profile pic!
