Could Using Senna Super Colon Cleanse Have Caused Itchy Rashes On Back, Chest And Stomach?

about six weeks ago I purchased a bottle of super colon cleanse which has senna .. broke out in a terrible mid section (front and back) rash. Not relating the two I began taking them again the other day, rash started on back, chest and now flaring up on my stomach. Itches and flares up. I am now nearly convinced the two are connected. I again discontinued using the laxatives, is it safe to say this could possibly be the cause?

Hi,

Apart senna, the super colon cleansed you had might have other ingredients that could have triggered allergic reaction.

So, I suggest to stop using it, read the leaflet carefully and write down the ingredients to keep in mind for the next time.

All the best!
