I am currently taking Vyvanse for my ADHD and Biacna for my acne (cream). Do I absolutely have to stop these if I am trying to get pregnant, or can I stop them only when I find out that I am pregnant?

It is recommended to stop taking Vyvanse and Biacna before planning to become pregnant, as both medications pose a risk to the baby, even in the first trimester of pregnancy. It is also important to take a folic acid supplement (0.4mg) for at least 3 months before getting pregnant to reduce the risk of neural tube defects.
