Linzess Allergic Reaction

Updated

I had an awfull expierence with my first and only dose of Linzess. I expierenced severe dizziness, lightheadedness after the first 3 hours. Then I noticed a rash on my face, swollen eyes, wheezing, sneezing and severe itching. These symptoms lasted 18 hours + and I continue to have an itching face the next day. I took benedryl evey 6 hours for 2 days. After reading the Lizness website, I found I expierenced "Rare" side effects and I have called Actavis to report my adverse reaction.

Yes, those are typical symptoms of an allergic reaction, as listed by the FDA and it usually means you will need to refrain from taking this medication in the future, as these types of reactions can get worse with repeated exposure.

How are you doing, now? Has it cleared up?
