Discuss with doc: These are signs of an immediate-type allergic reaction (assuming symptoms occur right after taking the medication) or drug-induced hives. Since an allergic reaction is potentially serious (even deadly), discuss with your doctor. If concern remains based on the discussion, then would recommend taking the next dose in the office or switching. If hives is considered more likely, then use cetirizine.

Macrobid allergy: If you have symptoms of itching, particularly with mouth/lip symptoms, you should stop this medicine right away and call your doctor. Sometimes emergency room treatment is required if the symptoms are significant and/or you are getting worse. Macrobid, as with any medication, has the potential to cause allergies. Best to get it checked out ASAP.
