Skin Reactions
Skin reactions are common symptoms of antifungal allergies. These could manifest as hives, rashes, itching or redness on the skin. In some cases, there may also be blistering, peeling, or a rash that looks like sunburn.
Respiratory Problems
Respiratory symptoms such as wheezing or difficulty breathing can occur as a result of an allergic reaction to antifungal medications. Serious reactions could potentially lead to anaphylaxis, a life-threatening allergic reaction that causes difficulty breathing and a drop in blood pressure.
Swelling
Swelling of the face, lips, tongue, or throat can be symptoms of an antifungal allergy. This can lead to difficulty swallowing or breathing, and should be treated as a medical emergency.
Gastrointestinal Symptoms
Gastrointestinal issues such as nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, or abdominal cramps can also be signs of an allergic reaction to antifungals medications.
Fever or Chills
An allergic reaction to antifungal medications can also induce a fever or chills. This is often accompanied by other symptoms such as headaches and body aches.
Dizziness or Fainting
Some people might experience dizziness or fainting as a reaction to antifungal medications. This could be due to a drop in blood pressure caused by a severe allergic reaction. Immediate medical attention should be sought if these symptoms occur.
