Anyone got an itchy rash??

[Louisies]

Not around the injection site, but on my torso. It's low-key itchy, mainly around my stomach and breasts, a couple of patches on my arms. I feel absolutely fine otherwise - no side effects so far, except this one. I injected for the first time on Wednesday.

Anyone else?

Sorry OP, I don't have any advice, but bumping a bit to see if anyone else has experienced this!

It's a known side effect, try taking an oral antihistamine as it's likely to be a mild allergic reaction. If it gets worse or doesn't go away then contact your prescriber for advice.

Sent photos to your prescriber or go and see your pharmacist.

Injection site reactions are fairly common and nothing to worry about. Other itches that are more widespread are worth someone medical checking and monitoring as if it is an allergic reactions it could escalate with each exposure to the allergen.

Thanks for the replies. It seems to have faded and the itching is gone - it only really lasted 24 hours I suppose, give or take.

I'll try to the next jab next week, but if it returns and is much worse, I'll call it a day with MJ. Really reluctant to do that, as aside from weight loss, it's helped my ADHD so much 😭

I'm just updating this thread, in case anyone looks for Information in the future. I'm on W2 D4 and no reaction this time - maybe the very, very mildest itching in one single area, but that was post-run and could have been something else.

I'm relieved. Fingers crossed it was a one off.
