Guest F16PilotMD Posted February 19, 2004 Share Posted February 19, 2004 See the Flight Surgeon. Not a problem, but they have to be approved and in your records. If you haven't taken them before (as documented in your records)you will probably have to be grounded for several days to "rule out" reactions to the medication. The best time to do that is as soon as you start UPT...not flying anyway for a few weeks. However, make sure the flight doc will still let you do the alt chamber and other physiologic training which requires a 1042. A7.32.4. Medication prescribed by a flight surgeon which may be used without removal from flying duty once the potential for idiosyncratic reaction has been excluded. ... A7.32.4.7. Topical antibiotics for control of acne. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
