At the outset, did you mention to your treating doctor about your Vertigo? Usually if that has been mentioned, on the side of caution, I for one would have kept the Isotretinoin in abeyance; first sorted your vertigo symptoms and then, restarted isotretinoin when things were under control Do check with your treating Dermatologist and go with her suggestion Godspeed 🙏
Next Steps
Revisit your Treating Dermatologist and confer with her
Health Tips
Fluid intake and good rehydration will be useful Avoid driving or handling sensitive machinery/equipment etc while suffering from vertigo
