will accutane intake for months cause weight gain
hi accutane also known as isotretinoin prescribed for the treatment of acne used as a last resort if no other treatments are showing a promising response gastric sleeve surgery is not a contraindication to take this medication and it will not cause any weight gain although in some studies it has been noticed that accutane is better avoided when a cosmetic procedure such as rhinoplasty is undertaken for up to a period of six months however the drug has other side effects which are rare but you should have been informed by your physician before they prescribed it to you such as sensitivity to sunlight headache and many others remember that your doctor has prescribed this medication because he or she has judged that the benefit to you is greater than the risk of side effects I hope this helps
hello doctor I have done a gastric sleeve surgery before seven months and I recently did a rhinoplasty surgery last month am I allowed to have accutane 20 my for a period of months and will I gain weight from it
