Can Concerta or other medication for ADHD cause or worsen acne?

Acne is not typically a side effect associated with Concerta or Vyvanse. However, if you are experiencing acne while taking these medications, you may want to try over-the-counter options like benzoyl peroxide. This can be applied to the affected area 1 to 2 times a day. If there is no improvement after 10 to 14 days, it may be a good idea to consult a healthcare professional for further guidance and treatment options.
