zantac used for hives

Hope something triggers an idea for you though. At the least, you could ask your doc for a prescription of at least Zantac and Zyrtec, so she has something to take when she is sick. Best to you.

some days its hard to walk and makes my job very difficult. i have heard of a medication called Kynatomine which is used for treatement of the liver, but heard good things about it in the treatment for hives. if anybody has any info on this or other treatments that worked for them it would be greatly appreciated. thank you.

I was diagnosed with graves a month ago...been on methimazole for three weeks and have had uncontrollable itching on my elbows and shins...sometimes hives develop...is there anything i can do to relieve this>? it is horrible at night and i havent been sleeping very much and the itching isnt helping...any suggestions>? is it just the methimazole or the graves or both? please help!!!

you are the first. Allegra/Zantac combo can solve this problem? Helped me when I got hives from my first treatment of Interferon/Ribavirin. Check with your doctor.

I've been to the doctor, they are unconcerned & just tried to put me on PPI's & they find the hives curious & prescribe an antihistamine. Pills pills pills. I take Zantac (my preference based on results) every day. The stomach conditions seems to be permanent & the hives on occasion if I haven't taken Zirtec in awhile. Some of my acquaintances also have this combo problem. Hives came around the same time as the heartburn/GERD.

s like Doxepin, Allegra, Zantac, Hydroxyz and a few others i cant think of. the hives start out as little red marks but then get larger and turn to welts. Also sometimes my face will start to get the welts then my face will swell like someone with seafood allergies. sometimes they get so pig they cover my whole leg or arm. Benadryl has stopped working for them and i now don't know what to take to releave some of the itching.

This is the use of hydroxychloroquine, a drug originally used for malaria. In a clinical trial 83% improved or cleared completely when used for three months or more.

t be able find the true reason for the hives. In the meantime I am still breaking out even with the Allegra, Zantac and the Hydroxyzine I am taking. So with all this said should I have the blood work done, or should I see an Endo or is there a link between the two??? Can you please give me some insight?? I am frustrated.

I have had chronic hives and hashimoto's for about 14 years. Thyroid is some what stable i have been on the same dose of meds for 6 years now. Hives on the other hand get harder and harder to control. What can I do? If you remove the thyroid will the autoimmune responce stop?

Hi everyone, My name is Krista. I am 25 years old. About 9 months ago I was diagnosed with CIU. Around the time I started getting the hives, I also had a low grade fever and a "general ill" feeling for about 3 weeks before. A little medical background: I also have anxiety, panic disorder, depression, and HSV II "of other site" (meaning i get it on my leg). I first was started on Cetirizine, 10 mg. When that didn't help, I was started on a whole handful of pills.

Thank you for your input. I am assuming that the hives are caused by my cats, I did not discuss with my medical oncologist yet. I was wondering when my WBCs get normal, will I no longer have this allergy. From what I'm seeing on your response, if it is an allergy to my cats, It will not go away. I've had my cats 10 years and never had an issue prior to chemo?

I have had the same problem. I had never had hives or any sort of allergic reaction to anything before about 8 months ago. I woke up with hives covering my neck, face, back, and torso. Since, then, every single day, without fail, I have broken out in hives. Like yours, they vary in size, severity, when they occur, even sometimes shape. I have been to countless doctors.

but im thinking of trying zantac for her the least doisage possible just to cjeck if it will reduce the spitting and the crankiness after feeds, but i also don't want her tummy to get used to it since my self i have been on omeprazole for years and can't live without it.. it's only during my pregnancy that I have changed to zantac and in severe cases pariet or lanzor.

acute and chronic (when hives persist for more than 6 weeks). Acute hives can start and persist many times during a day but chronic hives are there when hives are present for more than 6 weeks. 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 doctor. I sincerely hope that helps.

started taking zyrtec, seemed to help a little but starts up again so i also started taking zantac along with the zyrtec. i am still getting some hives and itching but now for about the past 3-4 wks now i'm also getting nausea, please help!

I've been having hives only on my lower part of my legs and lower part of my arms. They are like dry patches with tiny bumps. In a dry climate, I have no issues. When I'm in a humid climate, it gets worse. I've taken Zantac and Claritin, steroids and no luck...

m about to try drinking Green Tea and see if that helps with the symptoms. I really feel for those who have suffered w/ hives many of years. I don't know how you do it!! I've only had them periodically for 4 weeks and it's about driving me mad! Any help, suggestions, words of encouragement are welcomed. Thanks!

It has only gotten worse, I have gone under many tests that all come back negative, thyroid, lupis, autoimmune, etc... I am currently taking 1 Zantac 150 mg in the morning and night, 1 allegra in the morning, 2 zyrtec at night, and benedryl every 4 hours. I can not go outside in the day time, I can not workout, I can not eat hot/spicy foods, I can not get heated up or over heated, and I can't even have sex without getting hives. The pain is the worst when I have sex.

My daughter kept aspirating so they had to thickenher milk by adding rice cereal to her formula and also giving her zantac. Zantac works well for acid reflux she's able to eat without spitting up. Everything will be fine .

Hey, I'm just looking for advice and to see if anyone else is going through what i am. I was Diagnosed with chronic Cholinergic Urticaria. I cant exercise, i cant even go outside in the winter, i break out in hives every single day and every time i do, my throat gets real scratchy, and really gets be scared. On top of that i'm also highly allergic to dust, molds, pollen, dander, and almost every other airborne allergens.

I have been having hives for a few momths and have been seeing my Drs. for awhile now. I had steroid infections twice and it knocks it out the next day but you can not have them very often. And I have been taking antihistamines the whole time but I am trying different ones hoping, like Melissa, that one will work. Other than that I stll have no answers. Its not that easy I am finding out. But I can't sleep, which i have trouble with anyway,. I posted a pic of one leg on here...

I have read that allergy meds combined with Zantac or Nexium help as well as the thyroid hormone. Read the post here about Hives and Hashimoto's. I am using Vaseline, which works much better than lotion.
