  5. I'm taking finasteride 1mg daily for my pattern hair loss, and Ive also started taking isotretinoin 5mg for my cystic acne. I usually take isotretinoin for a few weeks and stop once the acne clears up. Im wondering if these two medications interact with each other, and if its safe to use both at the same time?

Finasteride and isotretinoin can be taken together
