Generalized Rashes After Taking Clomid. Side Effect Of Medicine?
I am shabana. I took Clomid tablet ( 100 mg for 5 days). After 8 days i have severe rashes on whole body. Are these rashes because of Clomid? I do not know, if i am pregnent or not. I might be pregnent. What medicine should i take for rashes on my body. Rashes are on my neck, shoulder , back and on abdomin. I am also feeling burning when I pass urine. My cycle will end on 12th december. Please, guide, me if I can take Avil tablet and Augmentin as my physician has prescribed me.

Hello Shabana,
it is possible that the clomid might be the origin of the rashes but given that you took clomid for 5 days and the rashes only started coming out only after 8 days, i am thinking that the clomid might not be responsible. It would have been nice if I could see the rashes to know what type.
In a few days (i.e 5-7 days after the 12th with a urine pregnancy test strip) you can do a pregnancy test or you can get dosages of hCG levels in blood. That could confirm if you are pregnant or not.
You are free to take the avil and augmentin as prescribed by your doctor depending on the problem you are having (if for the rashes and burning sensation during urine respectively then that is fine). You could also apply hydrocortisone 0.05% cream if the rashes are not too widespread from the places you mentioned.
Best regards
