Acne vulgaris.. Mild acne problem
I basically have oily skin.. Have been suffering from acne problem since childhood.. Acne clears with any medication and proper water intake plus avoiding junk food.. But comes back the moment i leave this disciplined lifestyle! I have 30 tablets of Isotretinoin 20 mg lying with me which were prescribed to me earlier. Somehow i missed the dosage. Can I take it.. 30 tablets I have with me. Almost a year back I took one tablet daily for 2-3 months.. I am not taking any other medications since last 1 year. So please tell me can i take the 30 tablets or not?
