Is Itchy Skin With Eczema On Arms And Legs Due To Intake Of Cipralex?
Hello, The symptoms can be related to an allergic reaction to Cipralex. So, I recommend using antihistamines such as Cetirizine 10 mg to relieve the itching. I also suggest using Hydrocortisone cream for local application. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Regards, Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi, General & Family Physician
