That's a great question to bring up! Itchy or irritated skin can sometimes be related to the injection site when taking Amvuttra.

Known skin-related side effects at the injection site can include:

- Mild skin discoloration
- Swelling or tenderness
- Redness or irritation

These are generally considered mild and not dangerous, but serious side effects are uncommon. That said, if the itchiness is widespread rather than just at the injection site, it's really worth mentioning to your care team. They can help figure out whether it's related to Amvuttra or something else connected to your amyloidosis, and whether any adjustments are needed.

Don't hesitate to bring it up at your next appointment — no symptom is too small to mention! 😊
