Talk to Dermatologist on Acne Creams In Pregnancy
Asking for Self, Female, 23 years old, Usa
Asslamoalikum iam 12 weeks pregnant right i always had acne so in pregnancy iam also dealing with acne alot and these acne medicines in Pakistan my dermatologist prescribed me when i wasn't pregnant but now iam pregnant and having acne so can i use these acne creams still also are they safe in pregnancy?
These are very mild medicines u can apply them on your face.
Drink plenty of water.Eat fresh fruits and vegetables and must use gel base or powder base sunblock on face.
Use bioderma face wash for acne prone skin.

Adapco is a retinoid and retinoids even if appled can result in fatal abnormalities. So its better to avoid them. You can use Clindamycin lotions and gel( clinagel, Clycin T, Ascolve), benzyl peroxide cream and gel (brevoxyl, duac, claret), face washes and soaps.

You should avoid adapco in pregnancy. Use acne cleansers face wash. Your acne will settle as pregnancy progresses.
