A member asked:
I'm allergic to tetracycline. would that be similar to tricyclics? taking amitriptyline for 2 wks. noticed red raw tongue few days ago. allergic?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Very different meds: There is no cross allergic sensitivity to tricyclics in presence of tetracycline allergy, but i cannot conclude that your "red raw tongue" is unrelated. See your doctor asap, and get this checked out and start therapy or change meds, if needed.
