iv been taking roaccutane for about 3 months now and havent smoked hash for that period,but would really like to, would a joint or two every now and then have any bad reactions?
There is always a good chance of a drug interaction. It all depends on the make-up of your particular medication. Some interactions are deadly while others can trigger either a manic state or depressed state.
I've smoked pot during the treatment and nothing has ever happened. But maybe that's just me...
The high is not as enjoyable as without accutane, since I think accutane's depressant effects do have some influence.

Yeah, i am about to start accutane in the next few days and want to keep smoking bud. Is it bad if i smoke a few days after I start it? anyone have suggestions?!
I would definitely watch out for drug interactions. You may find reports of other people taking the medications you are. If you're dealing with drugs, I would suggest erowid (google it), and looking there.
I personally don't have any experience with these medications. Depending on your chemistry and neural wiring, there's always a chance you go crazy or depressed. I'd personally not mess around with man-made medications for the mind. Because the side effects might make the "treatment" a big mistake. But hey, do what you have to do.
