After 1 month of taking accutane, my blood test was a little high for my liver. I've been trying to drink beet juice every day to help nourish my liver. I'm thinking of trying this olive oil with lemon juice cleanse I read on the internet. Any advise is greatly appreciated.

Answer: While on Accutane, avoid anything that places additional burden on liver
I'm unsure why you were sedentary during your treatment course. This is absolutely not necessary. Did someone tell you that it was? If your acne is going to return, it will return regardless of exercise, and then, yes, you may need another course of Accutane or another form of treatment. But...
Skipping an entire month will mean you will need to be on your course longer than your initial 6 month estimate. Accutane courses need to be consistent to work, so missing a whole month is going to require some recalculation from your doctor and a longer time on the medication from you. Please...
A typical course of Roaccutane is 5 months. It can take 3 to 4 months to have full control so do not be discouraged. Make sure you visit your dermatologist monthly for assessment and blood tests.
