612551 tn?1450022175 -) Benadryl does not contain prednisone. And I am willing to be that it was the pred that helped your dog the most: it is known in vet-circles as a 'miracle drug' because it can be used to heal alot of things. I just googled temeril-p and here is what I found: Composition Each tablet contains trimeprazine tartrate (USP) 10-[3-(Dimethylamino)-2-methylpropyl] phenothiazine tartrate (2:1) equivalent to trimeprazine, 5 mg, and prednisolone, 2 mg.

Avatar m tn erythromycin about 3 to 4 weeks later for pimples on scalp about 4 to 5 days after the stopping the erythromycin due to bad stomach upset (going to toilet 5 to 6 times a day) my wrists went very red and sore (worse on right hand) dominant hand and also my hands constant flushing/hot/sore (could not even but hands in jean pockets so sore) Was given antihistamine shot and 3 days’ worth prednisone tablets in ER which seemed to calm skin within a few hours but once they wore off it came back.
Avatar f tn His internal organs have all come forward and are pushing on his lungs and heart. He is otherwise healthy, runs, jumps eats drinks and eliminates. I am just nervous about the prednisone. Thanks for any advice you might have.
Avatar f tn It would also be helpful if you were to keep a journal of your diet and other things you were exposed to and a record of symptoms. If you can, go back and reconstruct the last week or so as accurately as possible. This might shed some light on what is causing you to react. Feel better.
Avatar f tn You can't just randomly put different medicines from your medicine cabinet on the cats. Cats will lick off whatever is put on them. It's probably poisonous to them. And, do not give them prednisone that was prescribed for you. You have no idea how to dose a cat according to body weight. Really, your best bet is a rescue group. Do some research online. I'm sure there's something out there that's a reasonable distance from you.
Avatar m tn I did the same thing after taking an antihistamine and got all upset and mine went up to 120. As soon as I forced myself to relax and quit checking it slowly went back to normal.
Avatar f tn They finally decided to give me a steroid shot and sent me home with 6 days of prednisone and an antihistamine to take every 6 hours that doesn't work. I also put Lamisil in case it was fungus. It looked like the welts were going down .About 8 hours later seems like welts are coming back an sms really itchy again.please help if you found something that works!
Avatar n tn He looked at me and gave me another dose of prednisone (2 times a day) and a topical foam (verdeso). This has worked in the past before but it comes back. I am starting to think he is just trying to put a "band aide" and not treating. What are your thoughts? Prior to this, I was on prednisone, a topical ointment (stronger than verdeso), zantac, and xysal. Thank you again for your help...
666921 tn?1254990618 I personally don't take antihistamine but just some advice I read that - antihistamine suppresses the immune system - never thought about it before - they work like steroids - some very good advice on another forum was - do not take antihistamine if you have lyme I am sure some of you already knew this but just thought I would mention it
Avatar f tn Good evening~ My sister is having this same type of reaction (x2 days) with it seeming to worsen a little with benadryl and prednisone (steroids). Did you rash clear up, and did you find out what the cause was? Was there a particular medication that cleared it up? Would appreciate any input you can give. Hers is quite severe looking. Thanks!
Avatar n tn After severall years of travelling, on my most recent vacation I ended up getting a pretty bad sunburn which ended up being sun poisioning and left me with swelling of the face, i got a cortizone shot and took some prednisone and i was fine, the other day I was outside for just a short period of time and I woke up with 2 odd looking red spots the size of a dime one on my forehead the other on my neck the one on my neck was very itchy the one on my forehead was not, I'm wondering if this is a
Avatar n tn Definite diagnosis of poison ivy reaction is through direct clinical examiantion and identification of the plant. Cleaning the affected area thoroughly with water, antihistamine medications and calamine lotion may help provide relief. However, if the symptoms persist, it is best that you have this checked by your doctor for proper evaluation. Take care and do keep us posted.
Avatar n tn What kind were you taking?
Avatar f tn i understand your frustration. I have been on prednisone for about 3months now. Have had mild case of chronic hives for 1.5years but last 3months have been hell. My hives are similar to yours, don't itch but they sting. If you can cover them up and can stand the pain, I say hold off on the prednisone. Take combination of antihistamines...claritin in the morning, benedryl at night, etc. If they itch but you don't mind the way they look, put the cortisone cream stuff.
Avatar n tn Course of treatment to continue for twenty days or so My concern here is although the rash is slowly improving with this medication plus the cortisone cream and antihistamine tablets im worried that the reason ive had no fever, malaise , achy muscles etc is due to the corticosteroid treatment masking these symptoms Appreciate your thoughts.
Avatar m tn My face and lips experienced some burning sensation and I felt weak and heavy in my calf muscles. My doctor put me on antihistamine and the facial burning sensation reduced. However I started to experience burning sensation in my head - scalp. Sometimes it felt like acid thrown on it and sometime it felt like a my hair had been pulled too long and the area in the head was sore. Blood work showed low B12 (247) and Vitamin D (8).
20914321 tn?1636236164 I mention this to indicate that 21 is not so sky high that only a cancer can do so. Prednisone affects immune cells, btw, and especially increases neutrophils in blood tests. It is similar to a natural hormone called cortisol.
Avatar f tn I then went to an allergist who put on prednisone, I felt zoned, but this did not help the rash. I took my last dose of prednisone and now the rash is spreading down my neck and worse than ever. I believe the prednisone made it worse. I was on for 14 days and my highest dose was 60mg. Any way I am at my wits end. I am seeing my GP again tomorrow. Any ideas of what it might be?
Avatar f tn Then, a year ago I breathed in some glue that was pretty toxic, my throat and airway swelled and it was hard to breathe, I was prescribed flovent and prednisone and it calmed down in about a week. Since then I have had bronchitus twice, pneumonia once and been on prednisone 9 times. About 2 weeks ago I was in a store and breathed in a body spray that made my tongue swell 3 times its size and my throat swelled.
Avatar f tn I have been to two doctors, that have taken tests, and cant find anything, have a patch test scheduled for next week, to see about allergies, I am going crazy with itching on my body, I am taking prednisone right now and I am still itching everywhere!! Please help!! I have stopped using any creams at all due to the doctor thinking that I am allergic to one of them!
Avatar f tn This hit suddenly 4 days ago--began on neck and back of ears and has spread over my entire body except face and palms and soles of feet. Especially bad around knees and thighs, and my ears are red and crusty. The rash seems to be colorless bumps and they turn red because I scratch and they break open. No pus or blisters. This happened almost exactly a year ago, the doctor prescribed prednisone and atarax but they didn't really do anything, so I'm reluctant to take prednisone again.
Avatar f tn Not really, but did you wean off it, or cold turkey. that could make the difference.
Avatar f tn s better, but if the paw is still very swollen and he appears uncomfortable, he might need an antihistamine or even prednisone to bring it down. Does you veterinarian have an answering service? If so, it would be good to check in with whomever is on call. Best wishes to both you and the little guy.
Avatar f tn If you have a rash, I would recommend getting a prescription steroid ointment or cream or solution (fluocinonide ointment, Clobetesol soln., and some others) and also a prescription for an oral antihistamine. Hydroxyzine (Atarax) works well usually. If your rash is bad, the over the counter stuff is not going to work. Plus, one needs to get on top of the rash immediately because it can and will snow ball. You are off Incivek now aren't you?
