What Causes Headache And Swollen Lips After Taking Primolut?
I have taken 1 dose of Primolot last night and had a bad headache within just over 1 hour, lips started to swell slightly but all ok now. This afternoon I have now got a pain in my calf on the right leg. Is there any chance on only having 1 dise that a dvt could have formed?

Hi Dear,
Welcome to HCM.
Understanding your concern. As per your query you have headache and swollen lips after taking Primolut . Well there can be many reasons for symptoms you mention in query like allergic reaction to any unknown allergen. But it can also occur due to side effects of medicine you mention in query .I would suggest you to take an anti allergic medication like Allergra or Benadryl. Do cool compresses over the lips. In case if there are repeated episodes of the same symptoms you should consult an Allergist and get evaluated and a thorough clinical evaluation and investigations like Prick test, Patch test, RAST test can help in diagnosis and treatment can be planned accordingly.You can be advised anti allergic medications . Doctor may also refer you to neurologist .
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
