The PI sheet for Lexapro doesn't list acne as a side-effect, but many who've taken the drug state that, for them, it has resulted in moderate to severe acne. This is true for me. I had relatively clear skin -- only the occasional pimple -- before starting this drug. Now I've broken out across my back and have developed cystic acne around my chin. Big, deep, painful nodules. I've never had this problem before. It's depressing.

anxiety, insomnia, fatigue, weight gain, or unwanted head feelings are the side effects of Prozac, but not acne.

If it has happened it should be for another cause.

Well have not heard of Prozac causing acne.

Anxiety, insomnia, fatigue, weight gain, or unwanted head feelings are some side effects of Prozac but not acne.

No.

I think Clearasil might help you with that, unless you are already using it for depression. :)

I have been on Pristiq for about two months and I am breaking out- so yes, I think it does.
