IUD and antibiotics

Hey girls!

If anyone can answer this maybe you'll help me out lol. So I have my gyno appt next week and I've been taking a antibiotic for my acne. (Minocycline) everyday now for about a month. I want to get the IUD so I don't get pregnant. Will I have to stop taking the antibiotic in order for the IUD to work? Will the hormones in the IUD stop my acne?

I'll probably ask my gyno this but I just wanna know beforehand in case I have to think of another method of bc (right now I just use condoms)
