I am starting an 8 week dosage of prednisone and I want to know how to prevent myself from getting acne while I’m taking that medicine. I know that acne is one of the side effects from that drug. I took it once before and I got a bad case of acne that was really painful. Thanks in advance.

I also suffered from acne while taking prednisone. I am still currently taking prednisone, but my acne has recently cleared up. I’m blemish free & can’t figure out what I’m doing differently.
An antibiotic like tetracycline would probably help with your acne & does not interact with prednisone. I’d ask your doctor about this before beginning a regimen.
Good luck!
Proper hygiene is main step to prevent from acne. With special diet and constant exercise to maintain your metabolic and to help yourself from sickness. Be aware on your environment crises to have healthy living lifestyle as well.
