Hi Wayne,
I too have experienced hives with about 3 different meds. Wellbutrin was one, Zoloft was another. The strange thing is that these reactions would only occur after exercising and breaking a sweat. The hives would be incredibly itchy but would go away after about 30 minutes. I found that after about 3-4 weeks they occurred less and less often and finally went away. I have a long list of allergies but never to any other medecines. Also, these hives mainly showed up on my legs and arms, and the more I scratched them, the worse they got.(go figure!)
I hope this info helps you, Like I said these hives eventually went away for me and never caused any real problems. Good luck and feel free to post any other questions regarding this subject.
