Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Suggest Treatment For Rashes On The Forearm While On Oxycodone
I m taking oxycodone 5mg and aspirin 325 mg. following hip replacement surgery 11 days ago and a rash came out on my forearm. It s not itchy and I called the pharmacist who said since I ve taken them in the past so she didn t think it was from them. Anything I should be concerned about?
The symptoms can be related to a light reaction from Oxycodone. I suggest using an anti histamine such as Cetirizine 10 mg daily. I also suggest using Betametasone cream for local application. In my opinion there I nothing to be concerned.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi, General & Family Physician
