Severe itching can be distressing. If you are taking medications for Parkinson's disease, it's important to consider that some treatments can cause allergic reactions. Here are some key points from my knowledge base:

- Eldepryl (Selegiline): Seek immediate medical help if you experience signs of a severe allergic reaction, such as hives, difficulty breathing, or swelling in the face, throat, eyes, lips, or tongue. [More info](https://www.MyParkinsonsTeam.com/treatments/eld...)
- Exelon (Rivastigmine): Similar warnings apply. Seek immediate medical help if you experience severe allergic reactions. [More info](https://www.MyParkinsonsTeam.com/treatments/exelon)
- Sinemet (Levodopa/Carbidopa): Inform your doctor immediately if you experience severe allergic reactions. [More info](https://www.MyParkinsonsTeam.com/treatments/sin...)
- Stalevo (Levodopa/Carbidopa/Entacapone): Seek immediate medical help if you experience severe allergic reactions. [More info](https://www.MyParkinsonsTeam.com/treatments/sta...)
- Duopa (Levodopa/Carbidopa): Seek immediate medical help if you experience severe allergic reactions. [More info](https://www.MyParkinsonsTeam.com/treatments/duopa)

If you suspect your itching is related to your Parkinson's medication, contact your healthcare provider immediately.
