i started on wellbutrin little over a week ago. I am taking 300 mg and I never have breakouts and my face has tiny white heads also. I was horrified. I didn't know if it was from wellbutrin or stress. I also experience irritability and flip out on people when in a semi stressful situation. My chest feels tight all the time, but I also have anxiety so that is probably contributing. Can someone maybe recommend a different medication for me to try? HELP
My daughter who just turned 19 has been on the Wellbutrin for several months. She has always had picture perfect skin until she was put on the Wellbutrin. At first it was a random couple here and there on her forehead or cheek, then it exploded with many little bumps all over her forehead, then cheeks and chin. Talk about making you depressed! She is now off of the meds for about a week and is now on Effexor.So far a slight improvement, but she is still battling it. She has been to the dermatologist to help it. Her psychologist never heard of this happening, but I have found so many sites with people having the same problem. If you have and switched meds, how long did it take for your face to get back to where it was? This is pretty much the same as the others that I have read, with the little bumps, white heads, and a few larger ouch ones! I'm hoping that no face side effects with the Effexor. It took us a while to figure out that it was the Wellbutrin, but I feel extremely certain that was the cause of her acne.
