What Causes Bluish Bruising On My Arms?

I am taking Terbinafine, a couple of weeks ago a friend commented that I had a lot of bluish bruising on my arms - she thought I may have had a dye from a new piece of clothing stain my arms. I have been taking Terbinafine for about 3/4 months and other than this I have not noticed any other issues. The bruising is quite large and starting to go down the side of my body on one side. Is this anything to be concerned about?
