Pharmacy - Decilone Forte

Expert: Dr Alan Galbraith - 11/7/2009

Question
ive been taking decilone forte 3-4 tablets a day...is skin rashes is part of too much intake of this medicine?

Answer
Dear Markus

Decilone can cause several types of rash, mainly one called purpura. You really need to see your prescriber for a proper diagnosis as it could quite well be something not related to the drug. Without seeing the rash it is impossible to determine the cause.

Regards

Dr Alan Galbraith
