Dr. Jerome Litt answered

Specializes in Dermatology

FURMETHIDE ECZEMA: THE ONLY SIDE EFFECTS I CAN FIND WITH EXPOSURE TO FURMETHIDE ARE SWEATING, FLUSHING, AND FREQUENT URINATION. HOWEVER, IT IS CERTAINLY POSSIBLE THAT IT COULD CAUSE ECZEMA. WHEN YOU HAVE A VACATION COMING UP, SEE WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU HAVE NOT BEEN EXPOSED TO IT. HOPE THIS HELPS.
