Q: yellow skin from medication ?

asked by: LEEALISON on February 20th, 2008

New User

Hi, I am a new user. My FIL has had parkinson disease for over 10 years. I have recently noticed that his skin colour has changed and it really is quite yellow.

Im not sure what tablets/medication he is taking, but is yellow skin a side effect of the tablets or should I get him checked out by his GP? It looks like jaundice.

Thanks for anyone who replied to me.

Regards
Lee-Alison
