I've never known anyone who had depression problems while on Accutane. And honestly, for some with disfiguring acne, all of the risks associated with Accutane are outweighed by the benefits. But yes, sunscreen is a must for those on it, as is an investment in a large tub of moisturizer.

There are a lot of people on drugs that require they also wear sunscreen. I can also imagine that there the benefits outweigh the risks.
