Does Macrobid Cause Itching And Swelling Around The Ankles?
I started Macrobid today and have taken the two pills. After I took the one tonight my feet and ankles started itching and seem to be swelling as well as turning red. I am allergic to many medicines, including most antibiotics. Is this redness and itching an allergic reaction to Macrobid. I am very allergic to Cipro, Ceclor, Levaquin and many other medicines.

HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
Based on what you are saying, then an allergic reaction is likely. It would be best to contact your doctor and let him or her know about the reaction.
If the reaction is confirmed then the medication would need to be discontinued.
I hope this helps
