Default Topical Acne medication

Hello,
I have heard that there are certain regulations in place regarding acne medication. Could a prescription topical acne medication get me denied?
Thanks.

Default Re: Topical Acne medication

Topical acne medication will not cause a problem. Accutane will result in a NO NIGHT FLYING restriction because it interferes with night vision.
