Is it safe to take plan B while on accutane? Should I take a plan b pill to reduce my chance of pregnancy?

Question

I am on accutane and on birth control pills.

F. Victor Rueckl, MD (in memoriam) · Answer

Do you think you are pregnant? Is there a chance you are? If so, see your doctor immediately. Accutane is a black label medication meaning you absolutely 100% cannot get pregnant while you take it. You need to be on two forms of birth control if you are a female of child bearing potential while taking Accutane. Plan B is not a birth control. If you think you are pregnant, see your provider right now. "This answer has been solicited without seeing this patient and cannot be held as true medical advice, but only opinion.
