What Causes Heart Palpitation And Pimples On Face While On Brintellix?

I am on Brintellix and It seems to be improving my mental state. I am having some unusual things happening and I am wondering if these could be side effects. My face has begun to form tiny bump like pimples. I have never had a complexion problem. This morning I woke up able to hear a fast beat of my heart in my right ear. This has never happened. Can you help me?

Hello,

It is a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor. It is used for depression. This drug may cause palpitations in few patients. But pimples may be not related or 2 to allergy.

So please consult with your physician he will examine and treat you with alternative medication.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr. Penchila Prasad Kandikattu
