I am currently taking wellbutrin, lexapro, metoprolol, furosemide, pregabalin, and lumakras. Recently I had a mental issue and refused to take everything except the lumakras.
Does anyone know if any of these can cause severe itching as a withdrawal symptom? TIA
Is itching a withdrawal symptom?

Hello.
All have that "potential", It's a sign that your body is craving something or has too much of something. Not medical advice.
Ask a pharmacist on other health care professional.
Best regards,

Hi Jmarr. Stopping or tapering off Lyrica (pregabalin) is known to cause itching. I have heard that it’s because of the nerves ‘waking up’ and starting to work again. I tapered off slowly and it didn’t last long but then I tapered off Cymbalta and the same thing happened again. I’m completely off both medications now and thankfully the itching has gone away. I hope it stops for you soon. Cindy
