I'm currently taking the following medications for bipolar disorder:
Wellbutrin 150mg once a day
Paxil 30mg once a day
Serequel 25mg 3 times a day
Serequel 300mg once before bedtime
Trileptal 150mg once during the morning and once at night

Ever since my pdoc perscribed trileptal I been having horrible acne outbursts all around my back, stomach and arms. I use skin moisturizer but that doesnt seem to help. My next appointment with my pdoc is next month. I don't like the side effects from the trileptal. Trileptol seems to help a little bit on reducing my mood swings sometimes. though I still get mixed episodes quite often and depressed/manic moods. any suggestions that I should do to slow down the acne outbursts from any type of skin moisturizers? tomorrow I have an appointment with my therapist and my pdoc goes to the same building as my therapist, hopefully I can schedule an appointment with my pdoc sooner for a med change.
