How Can Skin Itching, Rashes And Lumps Caused By Cipralex Be Treated?
I started taking cipralex 3 weeks ago and have had intensely itchy skin all over, along with some rashes in the form of little bumps. I ve decided to stop taking the medication and did so 3 days ago but the itching hasn t stopped it s even intensified. how long will it take for the cipralex and subsequent side effects to leave my system? what can I do to help it?

Hi,
Perhaps it is a drug eruption. I suggest you to take an oral antihistamine, e.g., Cetrizine tablet once a day for a few days. In addition, I suggest you to use a soothing lotion, e.g., calamine lotion.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
