My father has gone through angiplasty and later he found skin rashes on palm, fingres of hand and legs. He has taken deplatte and Atorvastatin for bloot clotting. Can these rashes be due to these medicines and why. What substitue can be taken instead of these if yes??
I have gone through your query and these rashes could be related to the medicines.
You need to consult his cardiologist and get them changed. Meanwhile, give him antihistaminic like tablet Cetirizine once or twice daily depending on the intensity of itching.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Asmeet Kaur Sawhney, Dermatologist
