my derm told me not to smoke or drink while on this drug. i understand the drinking part but what about smoking. if anyone who is underage and asked there derm about smoking cigs/herb hit me up.

so does it affect in a bad way if you smoke herb?

Has absolutely no effect on it. I smoked almost everyday on it and never noticed. And the blood tests are no problem. Ive taken the test stoned I just tried to not drink for a few nights before cause drinking does effect the liver in general. Im not sure if it would effect the shit they check. And only downside is tane makes your skin super dry...and bud gives you horrible cotton mouth, so if you are gonna like smoke before you go to bed, you will wake up with the driest mouth ever...

And why smoke the legal stuff if ya can smoke the herb =)
Plus, legal is so bad for you, my friend smoked a blunt of legal and passed out in the back of our car and his eyes rolled into the back of his head and then he had like a mini seizure. 15 minutes later he like came back and had no clue what happened and didn't remember anything from the past hour. That shit is so bad for you. Smoke the herb :)

What smoking cigars? Does that effect yyou at all?

well of course if you ask a doctor if you should smoke cigs/herb while on anything they're gonna say not to cause everyone knows its bad for you. as for me, i take accutane and smoke weed and ciggs all day everyday and the accutane still works great for me. i actually find that whenever i try to quit smoking weed i break out way more.
just my 2 cents.

cheers!!

cheers

Been smoking weed everyday for the last 4 months on accutane and there are no adverse side effects to report. Stay high my friend :)

The reason they don't want you smoking while on it, is mainly for the women who take birth control. Smoking can increase risk for heart diseases and blod clots especially while taking BC pills. But I mean, if you smoke some green here and there I don't see the big problem :) cigarettes are the thing you need to be to be careful with.

does smokin hash interfere with the treatment ?

Can someone help me out, does smoking cigarettes and smoking weed stop the process of your skin clearing up?

I am underage and i smoke everything. BUT, my derm said that this shits reallllly dangerous. Should i just stop eveything till i get off of it in 6 months?

K I'm starting the tane next week, I like to smoke atleast a pack of cigs a week or maybe 2 weeks at the most, how bad is this for me when I'm on the medication ??????

I smoke about 2-5 cigarettes a day,drink VERY occasionally, and smoke a small amount of weed every 2 weeks-ish. I'm worried about the whole cancer thing, but since I smoke so little, and have been smoking that much since about 14, would it still be as dangerous to smoke on Accutane?

I could stop smoking weed for the six months no problem, but I don't think I can with tobacco.. I would seriously appreciate some help on this situation,as I'm sort of nervous to go on them, but I really would like to clear my skin.
