Hello, I have been taking acutane for about 3 weeks. I am wondering if it is very serious to have a few drinks at the same time.

Hello,

It is not advisable to consume alcohol while on Accutane because it could cause you discomfort and headaches, in short you might not feel well at all. It could also raise your cholesterol and not be good for your liver.

So I don't advise you to take alcohol for the duration of your treatment.
