Could Itchy Rash Be A Side Effect Of Taking Ferrous Sulphate For Scabies?
ferrous sulfate is a new med that I have been taking for about 4 months. I have a really itchy rash, that was looked on, as being as scabies. I was not tested for it. I used premethrin cream about 4 times, and now the rash is coming back again. Could it be the ferrous sulfate?
