Hi,

Suggestive of carbimazole induced allergic reaction. You seem to have developed allergic reaction to anti-thyroid medication carbimazole. I advise you to stop taking this medication and ask your doctor for an alternate effective but a safer one for your hyperthyroidism.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Mohammed Taher Ali, General & Family Physician
