Can taking hydrocodone cause acne?

Dr. Sheila Calderon answered

Specializes in Internal Medicine

Unlikely: Stress, lack of sleep, sun, hormones, and more can trigger acne. If you are on pain meds you may have physiological stress from pain, lack of sleep and more. The pain pill is not causing acne but the circumstances may.
