Is Glyburide Causing Rashes During Pregnancy?
i have gestational diabetes. I m taking glyburide and i noticed that ever since I ve been getting this rash that won t go away. At first they looked papule like. My dermatologist prescribed me some sarna cream and now i am getting a blotchy rash with irregular borders all over both of my arms spreading now to my upper thighs. Is this a pregnancy related rash that will go away after I deliver or is this due to the glyburide? i read that one of glyburides side effects is hive like rashes. Help....i ve never had a rash this itchy before and it is impossible to get a good night sleep. What do you recommend? I have one more week before I deliver. Thanks

Hi dear, I have gone through your question and understand your concerns.
Glyburide can cause itchy rashes.
However, pregnancy induced papules and rashes should be ruled out by proper examination and investigations.
I would suggest you to consult a dermatologist for proper examination and treatment.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
Wishing you good health.
