Guest guest Posted September 27, 2009 Report Share Posted September 27, 2009 I also am experiencing an increase in acne. I'm taking Pentasa, which I believe is a form of Asacol (?). I also entertained the thought of the toxins as someone mentioned and I considered the decrease in the amount of sunlight exposure I am getting. I'm sorry that I don't have an answer for you but just wanted to let you know that you are not alone. Holly O. Crohn's 5/09 SCD 9/1/09 Yes, I never really had any acne even as a teenager. I'm now 36 and taking Asacol is the only thing that has changed for me recently.Besides the acne/pimples, I have little under the skin bumps that I feel when I touch my face, so I think it's some sort of toxin trying to get out. Has anyone found that taking Asacol causes horrible acne? My 14 year old son's acne has gotten worse since starting Asacol. I hadn't even thought of it as a cause.Liz -- Holly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
