Title: Skin Pigment Change
Post by: Rusty on January 12, 2007, 08:15:38 am

Hi everyone

I was on TB treatment for a full year and stopped it at the end of November. I noticed in the summer that I have small areas on the side of my face and towards my temples that are very white , as if the skin pigment has changed. Its not too bad but I asked my doctor about it and he thinks it could be the TB treatment ie RIFABUTIN in particular could have done this. Has anyone else had this happen. I am white by the way and always slightly tanned.
