OMG ....THIS IS SCARY

OMG ....THIS IS SCARY

So i took a Celebrex b/c my knee is killing me (my doctor said to take it as anti-inflammatory)

So I break out in hives., its so bad right now that I cant walk b/c its all over my inner thighs...

im piecing it together and I realize that it maybe from the celebrex...I look up the side effects..
These medicines also increase the chance of serious skin reactions or stomach and intestine problems, such as bleeding and ulcers, which can occur without warning and may cause death

Someone calm me down...anyone get this reaction?

Call the pharmacist right away to make sure the drugs won't interact with each other!

Yes, calm down and try to relax. Call your doctor, he'll probably tell you to drink water and stop with the meds. I took a prescription pill once for migranes which gave me heat flashes and I almost passed out. This stuff happens and hopefully SOON it will go away

Re: OMG ....THIS IS SCARY

Make sure you can take benadryl and celebrex together first.

Then go get some gold bond anti itch cream -- it works wonders!!!!!!!!
