Roaccutane and peanut allergy

I doubt anybody still writes or looks on here but I was wondering if anyone was in the same situation as me. I was meant to be going on roaccutane only to get home and read the leaflets that the dermatologist gave me. ''do not take if you have a peanut allergy" I have a severe peanut allergy, I have informed my dermatologist but heard nothing back. I wondered if anyone else has been in this position and if so what the resolution was. I've had acne for years and no treatment has worked... I just want it to go.

If your Dermatologist isn’t replying you could go to a pharmacy, and ask the pharmacist what is the best medication if i have an allergy, they could suggest other medications or creams, I suffer from acne myself and I’m on antibiotics, hopefully it clears up my skin. I have a lot of red marks and hyperpigmentation which won’t disappear. I also keep waking up with new breakouts so frustrating. But I really hope you find the right treatment and get you skin clear.
