I read all of the information that comes with a new medication. In one a while back, there was listed as a side affect that this medicine could cause "minor skin eruptions." :) Well I guess I'm in that "could" category, because it did. The problem with my medicines (as with all medicines, I guess) is that you have to outweigh the benefit to the possible side effects. So far this medication hasn't helped me, mood-wise, but I'm supposed to "give it time" to take affect. So me and my zits are giving it time. And we hurt. And we're sore. And we're tired of being tender and not being able to hug people the right way.

I'm always horrified to hear the side effects of drugs advertised on tv. Most anti-depressant-type medication would have to be really damn good to outweigh the havoc it can wreak.
ReplyDeleteI can give you my skin breakout recipe. It might help, might not, but it's all topical so it won't react with any meds you are taking.
ReplyDelete1. Wexler Foaming Acne Wash
2. Proactiv Repairing lotion (step 3)
3. Neutrogena Oil Free lotion for Sensitive Skin
The wash has salicylic acid, the repairing lotion has benzoyl peroxide. The combo works wonders. But you need a good moisturizer on top to keep your skin from drying out too much. Always go to bed with a clean face. The end.
