Would Taking Antibiotics For Fever Cause Itchiness All Over The Body?
Hi, my blood group is B- , during my first pregnancy i got this allergy in which i had body itching. and it away after my daughter's birth.
Now after 5 years i got it again, as i am suffering from temperature for the last 5 days, taking antibiotics. Is this itching back due to antibiotic or there is something else?

Hello
Thanks for posting at HCM.
Yes, if you are allergic to the antibiotic,it can cause itching.
I would like to know whether you had taken the same or related antibiotic
during your first pregnancy.
If you had allergy to a drug once,then there is always a chance of getting recurrent allergies to it.
Hope I have answered your query.
If there is anything else,I would be happy to help.
Regards,
Dr Jayasree P,MD
