Skin breakouts and hair loss

I am 19 yrs. old and I have Behcet’s. I am taking dapsone, colchicine, amitriptyline, folic acid, leflunomide,keppra, and Infliximab (every 4 weeks, 900 mg). I wanted to know if any one has random skin breakouts on their face, as well as have skin issue on your bottom. As well as hair loss. I did some research. It sounds like some of the other issues I am having - the breakouts on my face, dry skin, and the neuropathy - are likely caused by the leflunomide. I have paused taking the leflunomide because I have been loosing so much hair. It’s been really hard for me lately because I can’t control anything that happens to me and don’t every know what is causing all this. Anyone having similar skin issues and/or hair loss?
