antidepressent?


Question:
why antidepressant cause itching & hives??

Answers:
Antidepressants are not suppose to cause itching and hives unless you are having an allergic reaction to the med. Stop taking this drug immediately. You are having an allergic reaction to this med. Go to the doctor at once and tell him you are having a reaction and tell him your symptoms. He will probably give you Benadryl to take away the hives and itching, and prescribe you a different drug.
