Exercise and Accutane
Although isotretinoin is associated with joint and muscle aches there is no reason to avoid the gym if you don't have these symptoms.

Working out while on Isotretinoin
Do not stop exercising while taking Accutane. Muscle and joint pain is an associated "side effect" of nearly every medication on the market, including things like Advil. So, no, there is no reason to stop working out.
