> Ted.Itching and rash are listed as uncommon side effects in the drug monograph, but it doesn't say anything about whether they will go away or not, or if they indicate anything about e.g. intolerance to the medication. It might be prudent to mention it to your doctor, and see what they say.
There was a single case report in Medline of an intense itching rash preceding a pretty severe adverse drug reaction, but only that one case report.
