What acne meds are safe while BFing?

I just don't want to waste a trip to the derm if all she can give me is clindamyacin again. That stuff doesn't work for me. Spironolactone was magic for me, but I'm pretty sure that's out since it's a pill. Does anyone know if it's worth it to make a derm appt? TIA!

Spironolactone = L2, "safer". So if you want to take it, it's fine.

Thank you! I forgot all about KellyMom. DS is a month old and I'm just starting to get myself together, LOL!
