I have been taking champix for 6 weeks. I am now experiencing an unusual acne breakout all over my face and I have little sores on the inside of my mouth . Is this a side effect of the drug?

Hello
ACNE is an infrequent side effect of using CHAMPIX and similarly mouth ulcerations can be caused by this drug.
Stop using this drug and consult a dermatologist for clearing of your ACNE.
Take some B COMPLEX vitamins twice a day for 2 weeks.
You should be all right soon.
Thanks
