Can Pentiver Ampicilina Be Taken While On Accutane?

Can I take pentiver ampicilina while on 40 mg of Accutane per day? I am a 44 year old female with no risk of pregnancy and a history of sinus infections. I have had a bad cold for about 8 days and was given a prescription but wanted to double to check.

Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
I understand your concern.
Accutane is a form of vitamin A. It is used to treat severe nodular acne as it reduces the amount of oil released by oil glands in the skin, and thus helps skin to renew itself more quickly.
Pentiver is an antibiotic of semi-synthetic broad-spectrum penicillin group. It is used to treat bacterial infections.
These two drugs does not have any untoward interaction and can be taken together.
Kindly take the medication as prescribed and do the necessary follow-up.
Hope the information provided would be helpful.
All the best.
