many drugs can cause sweating

July 2006

People are surprised that many drugs can cause sweating.

Antidepressants are a common culprit. As many as 1 in 5 patients on bupropion (Wellbutrin)...and almost 1 in 8 patients on venlafaxine (Effexor)...get some degree of sweating.

It's also fairly common with SSRIs...TCAs...and Cymbalta.
