I have had severe itching as well and was wondering if it was a side effect of the antibiotic. I got the itching about 3 days after taking the pills, then I forgot to take the pills for a day or so and started taking them again and the itching came back.

A non-allergic skin rash can be a side effect of taking an antibiotic, as reported by the U.S. FDA.

However, if you also have hives, or any swelling, those could be symptoms of an allergic reaction that will require medical attention.

Other typical side effects may possibly include nausea, dizziness, headache and diarrhea.

Is there anything else I can help with?
