skin disorder

Hello!

I am a 48 yr old female who has recently  been dx with ADHD (although, this was nothing new to
me, Ive been this way my whole life!)  I was prescribed Vyvanse 70mg qd and I also take
1 mg Ativan at bedtime so my mind can "cut off" and I can finally sleep.  Im doing well on
these meds but I have noticed that I am developing kerotoses on my face!  While I do have a
hx of this (mainly on my back) Im wondering if any of these meds can cause an increase in
the development of kerotoses?

Thanks!

Hi and welcome to the forum!
We are not doctors here but I think you should promptly contact your doctor about this! I am not at work so can't ask one of the docs about your queary, and I can find nothing in my books here at home, so pick up the phone and call your doctors office. If he/she has a PA, ask to speak with them immediately! If they don't, make and appt.
NOT to replace a visit to your doc, which I believe is the appropriate place you should be,  but while waiting to see them, you might possibly be able to get some information from your local pharmacist. Smart folks those pharmacists and they know drugs up one side and down the other.
Good luck. Keep us posted!
Peace
