Answer 1

You could break out even worse, but it all depends on your skins reaction. These types of medications contain high levels of Vitamin A, which does cause birth defects, and can take a very very long time to completely leave your system.

So depending on how soon you want to have kids, i recommend you stop now.

My brothers fiance was on Roacitane and even after three years she still has excess vitamin A in her blood, and has to wait longer to have kids.

So after you stop, go get your blood tested...and then every few months after that get it tested again to see how quickly your body is clearing it.

I don't want to scare you, its just important that you are aware of what certain drugs can leave behind.
