What exactly is considered “acne medication?”?

Broad Street Bully asked:


I put money in a flexible spending account, and it’s about to expire, so I was looking up what over the counter meds and whatnot I can buy so it’s not wasted.

It has acne medication listed as an eligible purchase. Does this include things like Nuetragena facewash? Stridex pads? Or is it more limited than that?

Can you take prescription acne medication if you have mental health issues?

Dot asked:


My sister recently started taking prescription acne medication which has really helped her skin and some of my friends have also used such meds in the past and they have clear skin.
I cant remember the name of my sister’s medication but someone has spoken of accutane and another one.
I remember looking up a couple and they had mentioned concerns or warnings regarding mental health issues.

Are there prescription acne medications that are fine for people who have been diagnosed with psychological problems (anxiety, depression, eating disorder)?

Thanks
