Acne Medications, Costs & Savings

Pharmacist insight

Topical medications for skin conditions work best when applied to clean, slightly damp skin. For conditions like eczema or psoriasis, consistency is key — applying medication twice daily as directed produces significantly better outcomes than sporadic use. Generic topical steroids are equally effective at much lower cost.

MedlinePlus overview of Acne

Acne is a common skin disease that causes pimples. Pimples form when hair follicles under your skin clog up. Most pimples form on the face, neck, back, chest, and shoulders. Anyone can get acne, but it is common in teenagers and young adults. It is not serious, but it can cause scars.

No one knows exactly what causes acne. Hormone changes, such as those during the teenage years and pregnancy, probably play a role. There are many myths about what causes acne. Chocolate and greasy foods are often blamed, but there is little evidence that foods have much effect on acne in most people. Another common myth is that dirty skin causes acne; however, blackheads and pimples are not caused by dirt. Stress doesn't cause acne, but stress can make it worse.

If you have acne:

Clean your skin gently

Try not to touch your skin

Avoid the sun

Treatments for acne include medicines and creams.
