"This is a topical acne medication that targets the oil glands specifically to reduce oil production so we don't feed the bacteria that cause acne. Topical Winlevi is very similar to oral spironolactone, which is commonly used in females for hormonal acne. Winlevi has to be used twice a day to be effective, and currently it's only a brand-name medication, meaning it's going to be expensive depending on your insurance plan."
