Is there a risk of interaction between my birth control pill and my new acne antibiotic gel?

There is generally little risk of interaction between contraceptive pills and topical acne medications that contain antibiotics. One potential concern is if the antibiotic medication causes diarrhea, as this could potentially reduce the effectiveness of the contraceptive pill. In such cases, it is recommended to use additional protection, such as a condom. It's always good to ask questions about possible interactions between medications to ensure they work effectively.
