I just found this article on Healthline website.

 

 Titled:  'Does too much tumeric have side effects'.

 

Healthline.com/nutrition/tumericsideeffects

 

If you scroll down, information re: curcumin.

 

Also, a list of interactions with certain medications, which could be very important.

 

As someone else said, stop taking it to see if your itching subsides.  

 

 

'More or less', 'Right or wrong', 'In general', and 'Just thinking out loud ' (as usual).

I'm  not aware of itching caused by curcumin supps. The only supp which I know can cause itchy skin is vitamin B3 (including B3 compounds).

Itchiness is definitely a side effect.

You may have a true allergy.  Sometimes exposure AGAIN to an allergen is more severe than the first times.

 

I don't know why you take it, but I would check with your doctor about resuming it.  No way would I just resume it after determining it was causing itching (possible allergy).
