Therapeutic doses of the opioid analgesics produce flushing and warming of the skin accompanied sometimes by sweating and itching CNS effects and peripheral histamine release may be responsible for these reactions. Opioid-induced pruritus and occasionally urticaria appear more frequently when opioid analgesics are administered parenterally. In addition, when opioids such as morphine are administered to the neuraxis by the spinal or epidural route, their usefulness may be limited by intense pruritus over the lips and torso. 

Cold sores are caused by the herpes simplex virus. They are characterised by groups of closely packed fluid-filled blisters, which usually appear on the skin or mucous membranes. They are most usually associated with the mouth and lips as the skin in these areas may not be as resistant as in other parts of the body, although infection of the eye and mucous membranes are also common. Infection of other skin areas is common in immunodeficient patients. The blisters can be tender and painful. They will normally heal without scarring. Cold sore infections can last for 1-3 weeks and are characterised by tingling and/or itching 24 hours prior to the appearance of lesions. Cold sores can recur. 

These are probably the commonest type of drug allergy. Reactions may be generalised, but frequently are worst in and around the external area of administration of the drug. The eyelids, lips and face are usually most affected. They are usually accompanied by itching. Oedema of the larynx is rare but may be fatal. They respond to adrenaline (epinephrine) (i.m. if urgent), ephedrine, Hj-receptor antihistamine and adrenal steroid. 

Outbreaks may begin with a prodromal phase of up to 24 hours before any visible signs appear, during which the area on or around the lips begins to tingle, burn or itch. 

The cooling sensation makes menthol a desirable additive to aftershave lotions, skin cleansers, lotions, sore throat lozenges, and lip halms. Menthol is also used in a variety of cosmetics applied to the skin and medications for the relief of itching. It is also added to foods such as chewing gums and candies to impart a mint-like flavor.

A 56-year-old woman had three episodes of anaphylaxis during 1 year and within 4 minutes of an oral challenge with minocycline 50 mg developed an itching and burning sensation in her face and forearms, followed by orbital and lip swelling. Within 10 minutes her symptoms had worsened, her heart rate was 55/ minute, respiratory rate 24/minute, and blood pressure 70/50 mmHg.

Skin A 23-year-old woman developed ocular and vaginal itching. Later-on symmetrical erythematous macules appeared on her limbs, mainly with involvement of hands and feet. Within 7 days there was a significant spread of skin lesions, which evolved into blisters. She reported the use of lansoprazole 15 days prior to the appearance of skin lesions. On examination, the patient was pale, febrile and tachycardic. Epidermal detachment involved more than 90% of her body surface. There were also some areas of skin erosion and a mild involvement of oral mucosa and lips with crust formation. Lansoprazole was discontinued, and the adverse event was managed with intravenous immunoglobulin (2 g/kg for 3 days), skin debridement and daily dressings. A significant re-epithelialization was obtained in 15 days. After 2 months, the patient displayed only residual hyperchromic macules [48 ].
