antihistamine

Avatar n tn How long can i use antihistamine for my daughter aged 7 months to relieve her of the eczema itching.
Avatar f tn I have allergies, dust, hay fever, cat hair ect.... not life or death type allergies, but sneezing, itchy nose and eyes, headaches. I take a one a day antihistamine to deal with it. .. but it says on the box not to take if pregnant. Im only 7 weeks, and have stopped taking them... but my allergies are horrible at the moment. All the sneezing is not helping with my morning sickness. During my last pregancey my symptoms actually went away but not this time...
Avatar f tn I had to wait to get home to take benadryl since I am not 100% certain that Benadryl does not give me hives. Also, I figured out I cannot even take some pills like Pepcid for heartburn because they cause hives all over me and are very itchy hives. The hives today were not bad itchy thankfully. Truthfully, I do not what drugs I can take since I can have either no reaction, hives or swelling. Has anyone else had a problem like this? Any suggestions on how to deal with my allergies?
Avatar n tn For about 22years now, I have had this chronic unyielding, head to toe itch with no rash. The only thing that helps is a daily antihistamine. There is no rash or real explanation on what the true trigger is. Doctors think it's in my head. I take a daily allergy pill and have for 22 years.
Avatar f tn No not yet i have an app in a couple of days
Avatar f tn Here's one for the books. My daughter has had a allergic reaction to an oral antihistamine she took for what appeared to be hives just below the right side of her derriere. This little bout of hives were taking their time going away and so she thought by taking the antihistamine it would help the process.

Avatar m tn No not typically. Normally Asthma patients have a wheeze. Itchy throat and watery eyes sounds like allergies. You can take over the counter meds like Benadryl this type of med has antihistamine in it and it should stop your problems.
Avatar n tn What kind were you taking?
Avatar m tn this particulary happens with increase sweating.I keep my clean. the skin also darkens. i have tried clotrimazole. but its not working. Kindly guide me with a proper medication and also the prevention procedure.
Avatar f tn It itches and then it burns and hurts. I dont know what eles to do for it because it is not going away. I thought it was maybe a bug bite or a spider bite, because I am allergic to spiders and remembered last time i got bit I got a rash, but it didn't last this long! Any ideas??? Help!!!
Avatar m tn However, please make sure that while working out, the clothing does not rub against the lesions. This may cause infection or cause more spread by way of Koebner's Phenomenon Molluscm can affect any area of the skin but is most common on the body, arms, and legs. It is spread through direct contact or shared items such as clothing or towels. In adults, molluscum infections are often sexually transmitted and usually affect the genitals, lower abdomen, buttocks, and inner thighs.
Avatar f tn I have noticed that my palms on the hands started peeling in round circles that spread over the entire palm after I was working with varnish. I wore plastic gloves to protect my palms from peeling yesterday and this morning I noticed more peeling spreading down to my wrists.
Avatar n tn My pug has been suffering from breathing problem since a few weeks. He has had a running nose, hard to breathe and very uncomfortable specially during the evenings. The vet has given him two rounds of antibiotics which don't seem to be really working. I personally have given himm 1ml of antihistamine( human) that seems to give him some respite. The vet did take a swap test of his snort but that was 3weeks ago but has not called me back. I am really worried because he is very uncomfortable.
Avatar f tn My head feels so groggy, my dizziness increases and my overall feeling ill gets worse. What I do, is take an antihistamine and it seems to help or at least reduce the effects. High humidity for me is the worse, extreme heat also affects me, now - I live in Canada so winter is fast approaching and when it is humid and cold I get hives instead of the other symptoms. I only have treated with the antihistamines but would like to see what everyone else does to cope.
Avatar f tn Have you touched any plants, had any hot water go on your hand, had any chemicals, detergents, colorants etc get on or touch your hand? Have you used rubber gloves? Just some things to think about. Think back to when the rash appeared to what you may have done differently or touched something that you had not done before. Sometimes though you can be OK with things and out of the blue get a skin reaction to it. All those lotions and potions won't help your skin condition.
Avatar n tn t sleep, and the hives were really bad this morning, so we went to the hospital, where they gave her an IV with antihistamine and cortisone. The Dr. prescribed two type of antihistamines, loratadine and dexchlorpheniramine, as well as a once daily steroid prednisolone. A couple hours after returning from the hospital, the hives worsened. They are spreading across her body and the itching in unbearable. Solarcaine, aloe, cool baths, etc. have little effect.
Avatar n tn Thanks Jerry - yes, I have spoken to him about it and he does get congested at night. He just started using just a nasal rehydration spray but I'm not sure if it's working. If it's an alergy than maybe the antihistamine could work, we can try it. I have heard about Afrin - I will look it up. Thanks for your input!
Avatar n tn Lately I have been getting dry skin, especially around my eyes. It's become inflammed and red underneath my eyebrows, and around to the outsides of my eyes. Whenever I put moisturizer on it, all it does is burn. I've tried multiple moisturizers, and nothing is working. I recently bought new acne medication, do you think I could be allergic to it? Or is it just because I need to drink more water or something like that?
