Q: Does bupropion hcl cause a hive like rash

I started taking bupropion hcl a month ago. 2 days in a row I broke out in a rash that looks like hives and welts on my hands and arms, spots on my legs, back and even my head. Could this medication be causing this? During these outbreaks the itching is unbearable!

It is also listed as one of the allergic reactions found in the trials.

 

Discuss this with your doctor ASAP.
