Common Questions and Answers about Allegra for itchy skin

allegra

Avatar n tn Have you been tested for Dermographism? Does your skin itch and blister or break out if you don't take your allegra for 1 to 3 days? Do scratches stay for long periods of time or leave scars? Have your doctor do the skin writing disease test. I always wondered why I could remove everything from my diet and didnt use perfumes and still get acne and nothing took it away. That was why.
7639611 tn?1392877261 ve been experiencing itchy red patches of skin that look like a rash on my arms, hands, and legs. The skin on my forehead is red, irritated, dry and flaky, though not quite as itchy. The skin all around my eyes is also red, irritated, dry and flaky. Oh, and my nipples are cracking. I use a humidifier, and I've tried applying Allegra cream, Vaseline, and Neosporin. I've also been taking Allegra orally. I wash my sheets, vacuum, and keep my living environment clean.
Avatar f tn I ended up having Hives. I have allegra and I stopped taking it for awhile. So, yesterday I took it again and as of right now, I'm doing great! I've also been feeling down lately. That too is related to the allegra. Who would've known?!
Avatar n tn I have taken over the counter drugs....Claritin and Allegra. They do not help at all. Symptoms include, watery, burning and itchy eyes. Itchy nose. extreme drowsiness. almost unable to function as I should. I am 74 years old.
Avatar m tn Hi there, My son is 17 and having an awful time with seasonal allergies, Zyrtec seems to help a little, smae with allegra Benadryl helps more but he still looks and feels miserable. His eyes are intchy and red and his nose is runny and congested at same time with what he describes as a "itchy feeling" behind the bridge of his nose.
1451936 tn?1294898715 1 week after this rash cleared up, i had an itchy left calf and an itchy thigh, which after itching turned into a welt and a bruise due to the itching. For this the doc. gave me more propaderm ointment and allegra 120mg x 2 per day for 3 weeks. I have had no rashes since and this 2nd bout of rash cleared up in 3 days after use of these medications. I was tested by 4th generation hiv test at 26 days and the results were negative. The rashes are causing me anxiety.
Avatar n tn Am taking one Allegra in the AM and one Zrytec at night for about 3 days. The itchy rashes are a big annoyance. I have been allergy tested for food and have no food allegies. Any suggestions?
Avatar m tn t miss a dose, it does work in the end. When my son needed some for his skin because the dripping wound thing was happening for him, it took at least two weeks before there was noticeable improvement. If you are pretty sure this is from an allergic reaction to something, if your doctor approves, you might want to add an allergy pill to your regime (like Allegra or Benadryl).
Avatar m tn ve lost lots of weight avoiding processed foods and other foods. Oh and when she showers it should be quick and cool, with dove for sensitive skin, unscented. To dry her skin she should tap it only and cerave cream is good too for the itchiness.
Avatar n tn I forgot to mention that while I was on Allegra my doctor also prescribed hydroxyzine for nighttime. It didn't work, my allergist told me to take it during the day and I did for 3 weeks but nothing happened either. I stopped taking it because all it did was make me drowsy and did not help my symptoms at all.
Avatar f tn Hello, What you are describing may be hives. Hives (medically known as urticaria) are red, itchy, raised areas of skin that appear in varying shapes and sizes. They have a tendency to change size rapidly and to move around, disappearing in one place and reappearing in other places, often in a matter of hours. Many cases of hives are "idiopathic," meaning no cause is known. Others may be triggered by viral infections or medications.
Avatar n tn they get really swollen and the skin above and under them gets really really dry. They also get really itchy, but i use allergy eye drops to help that. However, my eyes still continue to get swollen and dry. I am currently taking Allegra-D and Singulair for my allergies. My doctor had prescribed me to Pata-a-Day Eye Drops as well, but they became too expensive and weren't working very well, so i switch to an over the counter brand. My medicine is obviously not working very great either.
Avatar f tn I've been having extremely dry itchy skin. Its to the point where I can't sleep at night. i did change my soap and lotion and it has helped with the dryness. But itchiness hasnt subsided (feels like something is biting me) and lab results came back normal. Today I called my docs office and I was told I can take benadryl for the itching. My question is have any of you moms taken benadryl and baby was fine?
Avatar n tn been taking some over the counter clariton, and some of an old prescription i have for allegra. This is really driving me crazy and i dont have insurance so im not sure what to do about it extra info- may or may not be related Itchy(no rash) Im a big guy 350 lb.
Avatar m tn Burning skin... (I've had itchy burning hands and soles of my feet) First, I'd spend the money on CeraVe' Soap, it's at the drug store, for your hands and the shower... Also, a 24 hour antihistamine, Allegra is the best then Zyrtec then Clariton, take any of the 3 that you can tolerate. Also, stay out of the heat, bright light bulbs, cover your self with a light shirt and pants.... a hat but you do not need to get heated like sweating....
11803947 tn?1430842645 I have really severe allergies and benadryl is not doing it for me. Today I woke up with a bloody nose. My eyes are so itchy and watery. My throat hurts a lot and etc ... I dont like taking anything while pregnant but I can't handle this anymore. Any natural remedies ?
Avatar m tn However possibility of a viral rash is always there. Avoid using any lotions and creams for the meantime and inform your doctor regarding the itchy hives as the medication may need to be changed. Use a mild cleanser with moisturizing properties like Cetaphil. Also use cotton clothes and change the clothes twice if there is any increased sweating. Try keeping the skin free of sweat as far as possible. If the symptoms still persist then you can apply mild steroid like dermacort.
Avatar m tn just a few days ago my skin start itching like crazy... when ever i scatch welmps come up all over where i sctatch i never saw this before..
Avatar f tn Although the bite may be itchy, avoid scratching it because you may damage the skin, and allow bacteria to get in, leading to infection. Continue using the calamine and wear cotton clothes. If the symptoms persist then get an evaluation done from a dermatologist. It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided. For exact diagnosis, you are requested to consult your dermatologist.
Avatar m tn Let me explain, so I've had every STD/HIV test and even seen a dermatologist who said it's just an allergic reaction, but this has persisted for about 3 months now. So when I rub my skin, either light or rough it gets red and bumps appear but go away within minutes. My dermatologist prescribed fexofenadine (Allegra) and that helps. My derm said that it was Ecsastencia (?
Avatar m tn i took allegra but, itching is not going. what is this and what should i do for it.
Avatar n tn Since June of 2017 I have been dealing with extremely itchy hives, like scratching myself bloody itchy. I have been prescribed doxepin as an antihistamine and have been on a low histamine diet but it still flares up every night starting at around 6pm. Before I got prescribed the doxepin I was waking up scratching several times a night and would have to take up to ten allegra a day and a steroid every night (I am now slowly getting off of the steroid and only take allegra occasionally).
Avatar f tn Hmm... Not sure what it is but i got eczema after being pregnant. Its on both or my and and one hand. Its incredibly itchy and red. I've found Eucerin works best for me. Good luck!
