I was taking them every 6 hours. My last pill was at 11:00 a.m. one day,
and during that night I started itching. The next morning I was covered
with red measle-like hives in patches, some areas are totally red around my
stomach area similar to this

I went to the emergency room. The doctor said there was no treatment, but
to take benedryl for itching. But I'm still itching. She said it would
cover my whole body, get worse before it got better -- so far she's correct.
Thanks for answering.
