I have started my Accutane treatment and according to my blood tests, I am not sufficiently immunized against hepatitis B.

No, taking Accutane is not a contraindication for receiving the hepatitis B vaccine. However, it is recommended to monitor the health of your liver before getting vaccinated to ensure there are no issues. If your antibody levels are low, it would be best to consult with your healthcare provider to determine if a booster dose is necessary. This is the recommendation from the immunization committee in Quebec.
