I have developed hives like sores that are very itchy. I have been taking this medication 2 x a week since Jan. 16th of this year. I have come to Florida on a vacation and now I am having this trouble. Is it caused by this medicine and can I just stop it?
Yes, hives could be drug-induced. Common medications that induce hives are painkillers, antibiotics, multivitamins, etc.
