Can a doctor other than a dermatologist prescribe Accutane?

A doctor must be registered in the iPledge program to prescribe Accutane, which is the program instituted by the FDA a few years back. No, you don't have to be a dermatologist to prescribe it, but not many offices are going to go through the trouble of registering and being up on the program if they don't have a lot of patients coming in regularly for the medication. This is why it is usually derms who prescribe it. "This answer has been solicited without seeing this patient and
