Itching And Rash Treatment

Updated

I started taking Linzess in early August and around the end of August I broke out with a rash and had severe itching and had to go to a dermatologist. She thinks I had a allergic reaction so I am taking the linzess twice a week. Its not working as well as before, but I was miserable for a month with the itching.

Hello, Lulu! How are you?

The problem is that even just taking it twice a week may not be safe, if you are allergic to it, because such reactions tend to get worse with time.

Have you consulted an allergist or immunologist? That might be a good idea, in order to get a better idea of what's going on.
