Hi,

Welcome to Healthcare Magic. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Itchiness you have after antibiotic intake is an allergy reaction to this antibiotic. Stop taking it and report this side effect to your doctor.

Itchiness will disappear after stopping Augmentin. Can take OTC antihistamines to relieve itchiness.

Wish fast recovery.

I hope I have answered your query. Let me know if you have any further questions.

Take care.
