I'd stick with topical (things that you put ON the skin) stuff for acne. I've never heard anything bad about Retin-A.
I don't recommend taking the pill just for acne. It has some weird side effects that I just don't think are worth it if you don't absolutely NEED the pill for contraception.
My regular family dr started me on the pill for acne, and it didn't help much. I gained weight, had headaches because of the hormones, and got nauseous alot. When I went back to my GYN (to see if maybe she knew what was going on), she told me that taking the pill just wasn't worth it if I didn't need it for it's actual purpose (contraceptive).
