Hi Cynthia,

 

Thank you for your question! I would recommend that you speak with your doctor about this situation. While I am not a physician, it sounds to me like the welts and itching that you are experiencing could be signs of an allergic reaction to the medication. If so, you should definitely not be taking this medicince! I strongly suggest that you speak with your physician and see what he or she recommends that you do. Best of luck!!
