A member asked:
My husband takes oxycotin 60 mg snd when he takes it it makes him have sores on hid hands and mskes him scratch all over is that normal.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See below: My best guess would be either an allergy to the medication or simply the release of histamine due to the medication. First, he needs to stop scratching, the sores will get infected. Get some otc Benadryl (diphenhydramine) or zyrtec (less sedating). Second, call his doctor to discuss this. He may need to try a different pain medication.
