I started isotretinoin treatment for my +7 years of active acne doctors prescribed me 20mg of isotretinoin and they told me to not work out even the slightest heavy lifting can cause me to get off the treatment. Is there any way i can make gains and workout while on isotretinoin or should i just try to lose bf while i am at it.

Just say u get zero sides ect, tell them u didn’t even get dry lips they’re higher it ASAP

Just know that a lot of docs start low 20-30 and go up after 1-2 months
