    Default Prednisone & Acne

    Hi Everyone,

    So its been a long summer and I've had four rituxan treatments and have been tapering down on Prednisone from 40mg to currently 5mg. I'm feeling ok not 100%. Still not in remission since I still have a positive Anca in my recent bloodwork. But the number has gone way down. Anyway, my latest concern is I have developed Acne on the right side of my face. I've been to the dermatologist and I'm on a face cleaning regimen and applying creams. It's working but I see only a little improvement. I feel like a teenager again and the worst thing is I don't think I broke out like this back then. Can anyone relate to what I'm going through and does anyone have any advice on steriod Acne.

    Thanks,
    Michelle

    I use Aveno moisturizing soap. That seems to be the best thing for me when the pred acne starts coming out again.
