I am currently taking three 20mg. doses of Accutane a day and have been
doing so for about three months now. I can say I am near the end of my
treatment since I havent had any new breakouts. Anyway I would much
appreciate your professional advice on this subject. What are the risk
of mixing accutane and alcohol? By mixing I am talking about taking 7 to
8 drinks two nights a week at the most.
I haven't had any blood tests, but I feel fine. An answer would be most
welcome since nobody has been able to give a precise answer on the
subject.
Thank you very, very much.

NO BLOOD TESTS? You must be kidding if you expect me to endorse alcohol and accutane in this forum. You first need to make sure you liver was fine before and during accutane. Moderation is the key in many things in life, and I would only suggest you talk to the doctor who is monitoring your accutane. Be careful. Eliot
