What Causes Itchy Dry Face And Red Puffy Eyes?
A couple days ago...my face starting feeling very dry and itchy. Now my face, including my eyes are very puffy, dry and red. What could this be caused by? I switched ten days ago from 40mg of simvastatin to 80mg. I don t know if this has anything to do with it or not?

Hi,
It may be irritant contact dermatitis most probably. Consult the dermatologist for the perfect diagnosis and proper treatment. After thorough examination and investigations, your doctor might give perfect treatment.
Hope this helps.
