Roaccutane makes your skin more sensitive to the sun so you may burn more easily!. You need to be properly protected!. Cover up, wear a rimmed hat and a 30+ sunscreen (oil/alcohol free varieties)!. Don't sunbake or use a solarium!.
You should never stop taking the medication without speaking to your GP first!. enjoy your holidayWww@Answer-Health@Com

No, DON'T stop taking the Roaccutane- your skin will become bad again!. You need to drink LOTS of water when on Roaccutane, to hydrate the skin and combat the side-effects!. Ideally, 5-6 pints a day!.
