Hi all,

Wellbutrin definitely causes cystic acne in some people. Imo mainly in females. Why? because I think it is caused by the increased testosterone (that are in its turn caused by the increased dopamine levels). Comparable to the acne you see on dope addicts (amfetamine/speed/crack).

I've used Wellbutrin several times, and everytime I'm on it I get serious acne on my cheeks/chin. Everytime I quit using it the acne quickly diappears. Normally I don't have acne, only a pimple or 2 when I'm about to get my period. Even in my puberty I didn't have acne as bad as when using Wellbutrin. Actually I hardly had any acne at all at that time. For the rest I'm very positive about Wellbutrin (libido increaser numero uno), so it made me really sad that I had to stop using it because of the acne. I still have a scar from one very bad pimple :(

Best wishes for everybody!
