I am wondering if anybody experienced on and off localized skin itching while taking Lariam. Since it comes and goes, I was thinking die off instead of allergy. Thanks!

Ivy..my 13 year old son is taking Lariam and is not experiencing any itching. He's been taking it for 3 weeks.
Hope that helps...

I've been on it, at higher doses than I see most people take it here, and have not had any itching.
But check the side effect lists on both the prexription insert AND at rx.com. Sometimes, there is inofrmation on one that is not found on the other. Also, I notice that Rx.com often has a section specific to children...
