Hi Customer (name blocked for privacy).

Any medication can cause itch if you are allergic to it. Besides allergy, there are many other possibilities for itch. It is difficult to diagnose without a thorough examination. You should see a doctor for evaluations. If you experience a serious allergic reaction, such as short of breath, dizziness, diarrhea low blood pressure, you should call 911 or be taken to an emergency room.
