How To Treat Side Effect Of Septra Ds Medicine?

I am on day 6 of septra ds for sinus infection & starting 2 nights ago I developed intense itching on the soles of my feet. The itching comes and goes but when it happens I can't stop. I feel like I could just claw my skin off! Is this a reaction to the antibiotic?

Dear Friend.
Welcome to Healthcaremagic.
Hi , I am Dr Anshul Varshney , I have read your query in detail , I understand your concern.
Yes this can be due to allergic reaction from Septran.
I advise you following:
1. To stop taking Septran
2. To take Tablet Avil.
3. If any skin blisters are there, consult your doctor for injections.
4. Always mention your doctor that you are allergic to sulpha drugs.

This is my personal opinion based on details available here. If you still have any other query, you may please ask me.
Stay Healthy.
