MedHelp Member's Question

Accutane / Pristiq Interaction

by cftw, Jul 03, 2009 07:57AM

I've been prescribed both and just want to know if there are any negative interactions between the two or if they are fine to take at the same time. My dermatologist didn't know and my doctor won't be available until monday.

Thanks.

Hi. There are no known inteactions between Pristiq and Accutane. However, you should be aware that a very small number of Accutane patients report depression or worsening depression during treatment. A causal link has not been established, but it is worth bearing in mind.
