What Causes Severe Itching On The Hands And Feet?
My hands and feet have driven me nuts today - itching. My feet have been some lately but not alot. Today they both went beserk. I had to take Nitrofurantonin Macro 100mg twice a day for a week. Took my last capsule on Thursday morning. Would they itch after I ve been off of that for two days?

Hi,
I'm sorry to hear you've been having a lot of itching. It could be from the Nitrofurantoin, it is a known side effect, even a couple of days after stopping it. Are your hands or feet red or swollen at all? Otherwise are you feeling ok?
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
