Can Azithral Cause An Itch Reaction?
Hi, I was prescribed azithral by my doc two weeks ago to help reduce a fever and when i finished the dose a week later i started having a continuous itch on my hips and butt. Could this be a reaction to azithral?

Hello;
welcome to HealthcareMagic
Azithral is a antibiotic and so if you are sensitive to a antibiotic then you can get a allergic reaction but it will happen as soon as you take the first doseand it will be generalised all over the body anywhere and not at a specific place .So if you have itching after you have finished the course of medicine then you need to consult your doctor as it may not be due to Azithral.
Thanks
