Pros:

Inexpensive
OTC (over the counter) medication
Good for Hormonal Acne in Women

Cons:

Recommended to not take more than 3 a day.
Recommended to not take for more than 10 days.
Some side effects.

I take Aleve when I see an onset of cysts or acne. I am not completely clear, but it does a good job of clearing existing and preventing new acne. Works well during PMS (week before cycle) to prevent hormonal acne flareup. Aleve is an over the counter medication that has been found to alleviate premenstrual acne and menstrual acne in many women because of the anti-inflammatory effect that it has on a person's entire system. However, Aleve (which contains Naproxen) is an NSAID medication, which means that it is not safe for everyone to take. (For instance, people who are allergic to aspirin should not take Aleve.)
