Hi all. I’ve been on lamactil for 4 weeks and developed acne on my face!! I've read about acne associated with it but I just thought that wouldn’t happen to me!! What a silly!!! My doc says that I have to take it due to my health condition, but I really can’t stand acne!! Is there anything I could do about it???
I've noticed that Lamictal also seems to cause my eyes to look blood-shot. And, yes, I've also experienced the acne - yuck! I also have to take it but I found out that it has no interactions with meds for acne so I’m combining the two. I think that is the only solution – take something for acne!!
