ACOG recommends that women who are pregnant avoid some types of prescription medications to treat acne, including, hormonal therapy, isotretinoin, oral tetracyclines and topical retinoids.

There are though over-the-counter products that are safe to use, according to ACOG, including products that contain topical benzoyl peroxide, azelaic acid, glycolic acid and topical salicylic acid.

Other recommended treatments for acne during pregnancy include washing the face twice per day with a mild cleanser and water without excessive scrubbing; using oil-free cosmetics; avoiding picking or squeezing acne sores; trying to keep hair away from the face and shampooing hair daily if it is oily.

ACOG recommends that women talk with their dermatologist or their OBGYN before starting any acne treatment to decide what is best for them individually.
