Is it ok to use sunscreen on my face while I am using acne prescription medicine?

Yes, you are actually supposed to apply it everyday when using acne medication even if not in direct contact with the sun. If not, the sun can damage your skin and contract a reaction with the medication. It's also best to use an oil-free sunscreen, so you don't clog your pores.Is it ok to use sunscreen on my face while I am using acne prescription medicine?
it's not only ok, but something you should do because the medicine makes your skin very subceptible to sunburn.


Makke sure it is oil free/non-pore cloging type.Is it ok to use sunscreen on my face while I am using acne prescription medicine?
yes, its actually best that you do because some acne medication can make your skin extra sensitive and it can burn more easily
It depends on the ingredients in the sunscreen and the ingredients of the acne medicine. There could be an interaction. Call your doctor and ask him or her to call you back. Ask.
yes, its fine. just make sure its a non oil based sunscreen
Instead of sunscreen, wear a wide brimmed hat.
That's a good question. Of course you want to keep your skin safe from the sun, but at the same time you do not want to break out from it. i do not know what you are using, so the best bet is to call the dermatologist or doc and ask what they thing!
most certainly! in fact, with most acne meds you SHOULD use sunscreen. look for something especially made for the face
