Abstract
Acne vulgaris is a common disease which is regularly and effectively treated with isotretinoin. A contra-indication for the treatment is peanut or soybean allergy. It is not totally clear how up to date this information is and if it is necessary to regard this as a strict contraindication. We present a 26-year old female with a serious peanut allergy, whose acne vulgaris was successfully treated with isotretinoin.
