Severe Dryness On Trintillex

I have just tapered off Wellbutrin and Cipralex and ramped up from 5mg to 10mg Trintillex. Luckily I wasn't hit with any nausea, which I had been dreading, and have more energy (which for me feels a bit manic compared to the sloth I'm used to). Skin, eye, nose dryness is almost unbearable though. My eyes sting, and even with moisturizer, my face is cracking. Will this ease up as I adjust to the med? Will any oil supplements help? I was terrified to change meds after a previous nightmarish experience. I don't want dehydration to be the make it break for this med.

Those aren't normal side effects, according to the NIH, but may be due to the combination of stopping the others and then starting this new medication. You may also experience headache, somnolence, and weight changes.

How are you doing, now? Has there been any change? Are these the only medications that you are currently taking?
