Thanks for asking,
If your doctor has prescribed these medicines you can carry on for atleast 2-3 months .oral ISOTRETINOIN is given when there is resistent acne or nodulocystic acne but remember that it is a potential teratogenic so one has to avoid pregnancy otherwise it is very effective .
Bye for now.
