does cipro cause itchy rash?

My doctor prescribed me cipro for a cough i had. A little while later i developed an itchy red patchy rash on my arms and leg. I dont think its hives because wouldnt it be all over? It also seems to be spreading. My doc gave me prednisone to fix it but im still taking the cipro and its not getting any better.

  • It can. If you're still taking the cipro and the rash is growing, then you need to stop taking it. Your doctor should be smart enough to know this.

  • It seems to be a heat rash. As said before if it feels like prickly heat, sort of stinging sensation on your skin, like someones pricking you with a needle tip, then it probably is heat rash. Easy way to get rid of it is stop the activity that is aggravating ya heat rash, (e.g. exercise, work), and then see the doc. He'll give you some pills that will help the rash disappear, and maybe even some cream to go with it. It should go away within a few days. So no problems man. If you really wanted to know, the prickly feeling is caused by sweat being clogged up in ya pores, and then bursting out. If it ain't heat rash then it probably is an allergic reaction, see the doc and he'll give you some pills (anti-histamines) to get rid of the urge to itch. Either way, go see doc so you can get rid of the rash man. Good luck.

  • It should not. What you're experiencing is an allergic reaction. Tell your doctor to give you something else.
