Hi, Seascape!
"Some side effects of vortioxetine may occur that usually do not usually need medical attention. These side effects may go away during treatment as your body adjusts to the medicine. Also, your health care professional may be able to tell you about ways to prevent or reduce some of these side effects. Check with your health care professional if any of the following side effects continue or are bothersome or if you have any questions about them:
Dermatologic
Common (1% to 10%): Generalized pruritus/pruritus, hyperhidrosis
Uncommon (0.1% to 1%): Flushing, night sweats
Frequency not reported: Rash
Postmarketing reports: Generalized rash"
Thank you!!!
I took Trintellix and got a rash under each of my arms and around my belly button. They were kind of raw but not painful and oozing tiny drops of fluid. They promptly cleared up when I stopped taking trintellix. I did visit a dermatologist twice for the rashes but he couldn’t figure it out.
