Side Effects Of Marijuana With Accutane And Prozac
Hi, I am a 16 year old male who is currently taking 40 mg of Prozac and 40 mg of Accutane per day. Are there any side effects to smoking Marijuana while on those drugs?

I am no expert in dermatology so I can not comment on the effects of cannabis on Accutane but I can definitely tell you from studies it has been proved beyond doubt that smoking cannabis affects your mental health weather you are on any medication or not.
Also there may be other enzymatic side effects of smoking itself which may alter the amount of prozac that your daily dose is made available in the blood.
Best thing to do is, STOP SMOKING CANNABIS.
