Chemical burns symptoms and conditions

I was prescribed the wellbutrin for anger related to quitting smoking, took it for 10 days with no problem, then BAM.. huge hives all over my body. Broke out on Saturday, Sunday they were worse, Monday it looked like i had Chemical burns over 60 percent of my body. Went to the doctor, was prescribed steroids, zantac, and ataban. within 6 hours of taking the steroids, hives were down, it is now Tuesday, 3 days after first outbreak, my skin is still pink where the hives were. Apparently we are in the 6 percentile that get hives with wellbutrin.

My 1 year old son got into my box of chocolate Ex-Lax and ate about 3 or 4 pieces. Called Poison Control and they didn't have any suggestions except to keep him hydrated. I put him to bed that night, he was still in a diaper, and he had a bowel movement during the night. In the morning his butt had huge blisters where his stool had laid. The senna in the Ex-Lax caused severe chemical burns. He had to be admitted to the burn center at Akron Children's hospital. Most people aren't aware of how dangerous this product is because adults wipe after using the bathroom, but imagine what this chemical in Ex-Lax is doing to the inside of your stomach, intestines, and colon. I would like to make people aware of the seriousness of this drug, especially parents whose kids, like mine, will eat anything chocolate. I always assumed Ex-Lax was so safe, as they even claim on their box and that it would just cause you to use the bathroom without harm(as obviously even the Poison Control Center doesn't know the dangers), but Ex-Lax is very dangerous!

In 1999, Ex-Lax company changed the main ingredient to senna because the old main ingredient caused cancer. Ex-Lax and other senna-containing product companies don't want people to know about this. It's not even labeled on their box or website! They definitely know about it because I have called the Novartis Company and they have also had many other similar incidences. Please pass on.
