Provigil and rash?
Has anyone taken provigil and gotten a rash from it? I have a rash all over my face and body and can't tell if it's from the provigil or antibiotics I'm on. I got a pedicure and my heel and later the whole foot got infected. Yuck. I'm on vacation so went to ER. Took Bactrim for a couple of days but foot got worse. I also got a slight rash when I went back to the ER for a second time. They gave me a round of IV antibiotics and then switched me to clindamycin but I've only taken it 4 times.
2 days later after second ER visit I have the rash again but much worse. The only thing I can think of is the 2 days that I got the rash I took Provigil....but then again there were so many antibiotics. Now I'm set up to get 5 days of IV antibiotics.
Of course I read scary things on line about Stevens Johnson syndrome where provigil and antibiotics can cause a rash that makes all of your skin to fall off and kill you.
And if it's the provigil I'll cry because it works miracles for me.
