After 3 Days of Taking Oxyodone for Tt, Why from 4 the Day on Does the Medicine Make Me Itch?

It is not uncommon to having itching a few days after beginning a medication. I would recommend discussing this with your plastic surgeon. It could be due to to the antibiotic also. They may recommend changing your medications or discontinuing some of them. I wish you a safe and healthy recovery.

If you have had a tummy tuck and have been on oxcodone for three days and have developed symptoms of itching, you may be allergic to the oxycodone or one of the the other drugs you may be taking after the surgery.

Allergies present differently with different patients, and it not uncommon for a newly presenting allergy to not occur with the first dose.
