Can I speed up the process on Acutane?

I just started a week ago accutane, and my face broke up like crazy. I have huge red cystic acne all over my chin, cheeks, and my face hurts. My doctor gave me prednisone today, so I am hoping that helps. I have rosacea as well, and I see even more red than before. I was told you should not drink while on those these prescriptions but a little is ok, unless binging you should just skip a dose... is there a way around this? I do enjoy my happy hours? Why does it take so long for accutane to work?Why did this happen? I just want my face clear again? I feel so frustrated and upset. Thank you for your insight.
