Acne caused by prednisone

You really can't until you get off the pred. Its been a few months since I've been on it and still get the acne here and there, although it slowly goes away.

I read a lot about it, basically even though you CAN use acne products, it generally will not help since there's an underlying cause to the acne that they just can't get to.

I've been off since about April or may, and I thought about proactive but I don't want the automatic shipping, how long does the acne usually last?

I use a product called AcneFree. You can get it at Walmart or Target. It's the only thing that's ever worked for me. It's like Proactiv, only not as expensive I think.

i find when  i am on pred i get more like a rash than actual acne on my face and neck. oddly enough i found a zinc creme, like a diaper rash creme works the best on it. I put it on at night (cause its white and thick) and wash it off in the morning, a couple times a week or every other day when it gets really bad.

I use to use it if i got a bad pimple and needed it to clear up fast, then the pred rash/acne hit and said what the hey, its still there but not nearly as bad as if i dont use it. Something to try and its much cheaper than pro active
