I've been using Vicebrol for a week now and since then I've been experiencing itchy skin every day, usually on my stomach and around my feet. Does this mean that I need to change my medication?

Yes, there is a possibility that the vinpocetine in Vicebrol may cause allergic reactions in some people, which can manifest as itchy skin. While vinpocetine allergies are rare, everyone's body can react differently to different chemicals.
If you experience itchy skin after using vinpocetine - it is recommended to stop using it and consult your doctor. Your doctor can carry out appropriate diagnostic tests and advise you if your symptoms are related to an allergy or if there may be other causes. If necessary, alternative remedies or symptomatic treatment of skin itching may be recommended.
