I had three glasses of vodka soon after I started the treatment and was up most of the night vomiting. Since then I have had the occasional glass of wine or beer and that seems fine.
They recommend not drinking alcohol while on this drug because your liver is already under a lot of stress and excessive alcohol consumption while also taking roaccutane may cause pancreatitis.
So I recommend saving alcohol for special occasion and then not drinking more than 2-3 drinks. Your liver will appreciate it.

I was and are still one the pill. Not because it's not working though. I have been lousy at taking the pill when i am sopposed too. Anyway. I have been drinking alcohol because this was really important to me but the only side effect have been extra dry lips and face. This is normal because the pill really dehydrate your body adn alcohol does the same even better. I hope if you have problems like me (really bad) then you get this pill and take it for a few moths of your life. It sounds scary but the reality of it is that yiu can quit whenever you want to. I have not had any psycological effects at all. I have been drinking and i have had sleeping problems (not becouse of the pill). I really hope that all the people reading this will have respect for us that had/have problems with acne will understand that ths is not easy at all. It can ruin your self esteem and even your live. Hope for happy replies and good luck reading this =) From a man who is 23 years old an is FINALLY FREE OF ACNE!

Been on the roac for about 4 months now. Taking max dose of 80mg/day (mass = 80kg). Have been drinking heavily recently and have found that my hangovers are far far more severe than ever before. All my blood tests have been normal and I advise all to drink in moderation but I haven't has any serious effects yet on the highest possible dose except terrible hangovers.
Anyway I think the drug is awesome and would recommend it to anyone struggling with acne.
Peace, Dan
