Oily face and acne from pre..

i have been taking prednisone for a little over 1 year now for kidney disease. i started at 60mg but have been moved down to 40 mg. before i started taking this med, i had oily skin on my face but now, its like 3 times as oily and i get moderatley bad acne. my doctor perscribed a topical ointment but it didnt do anything but dry my skin out. i eat healthy and exercise so it cant be due to my diet habits. any advice for the oily face and acne? thank u

I take prednisone almost daily for my asthma, and I have the same problem, mostly with the acne on my face neck and shoulders. honestly the best thing I have found, is water, not overwashing your face, (i am not a commercial) Oxy has a oil free face wash, and honestly, proactiv repairing lotion. It is pricy, but really worth it. I can't wear foundation at ALL :( . I hope you feel better & I hope this helps!
