Can I sunbed while taking Acnetane?

Question

I have been taking Acnetane 10mg, 1 everyday. Will I be able to do sunbed sessions while on the tablets? I love the sun so always had a great tan. Since I've started the acnetane I've been staying out of the sun and if I know I'm going to be in the sun I use sunscreen 50+

While on isotretinoin therapy it is not a good idea to have any uv exposure, especially harmful UV from sunbeds. 
The best thing you can do for your skin is avoid sunbeds all together.  
You can use sunless tanners to give you a healthy glow!
