If you only started taking it this morning, I would wait a while before you start fooling around with the prescription warnings. I would wait a week or two and see how you actually react when you do follow the guidelines. What is your daily dosage?

That said, I was on accutane for a long time ass time, while in university, and I have a hard to thinking I went the entire time without a drink- can't recall though. I believe there may be allowances for extreme moderation, but I would check with your doctor. You don't want the effectiveness of the medication to be decreased or to experience any deleterious side effects because of the interaction with alcohol- particularly with your liver.. Either way, see how you react over the first few days.

I was on accutane when I was around 21 and the medication definitely worked, but I still experience minor flare ups 10 years later. Not nearly as mentally distressing now as it was then.
