How long can i use antihistamine for my daughter aged 7 months to relieve her of the eczema itching.
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... my question is can i take my antihistamine?
Hi, my dermatologist has prescribed me a antihistamine for my itching and wants me to use it for 4-6 weeks. The med is called hydroxzine. I am concerned because i never heard of anyone using antihistamine for that long. Will this severly affect my liver? Please help!
Using the EAE mouse model for multiple sclerosis (MS), the inventors have shown that the disease course and severity can be ameliorated with daily administration of antihistamine. This approach has the potential for treating MS with less side-effects and more convenient dosing than current therapeutic interventions.
Stage of Research
EAE mice treated daily with anti-histamine receptor 1 have decreased disease severity and delayed onset of the disease compared to controls.
What kind were you taking?
No weight gain, tired but I take a strong antihistamine daily (side effect is fatigue) so before the antihistamine I was less tired. The doctor examined my thyroid and I don't have any lumps or abnormaliites. I had a CT scan of the throat about 6 months ago and that was normal. I don't know if the CT went as far as the thyroid but I think so. I am getting retested in 4 months. I did have a viral infection when I had my blood drawn and was thinking it could be that.
I am addicted to Diet Dr Pepper which is full of caffiene (yes I knowh ow unhealthy this drink is for me) and I take them. I still get drowsy. In fact, they lay me straight out. So I don't think its going to hurt you. However, if you are in need of antihistamine, water is a good idea because it thins out mucous and helps you breath and which chest congestion and coughing.
The antihistamines should be fine but you likely need to be on thyroid medication to bring the levels back to normal range for the Hypothyroidism (high TSH and normal T3/T4 is called subclinical hypothyroidism - but often this needs treatment).
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.
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.
Veramyst™ (fluticasone furoate) is a nasal inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) and, strictly speaking, not an antihistamine. As an anti-inflammatory medicine, however, has the potential to reduce histamine mediated inflammation, in a non-specific fashion. That it is not an antihistamine is evident by the very many studies of combination therapy, the combination of fluticasone with an histamine 2 (H2) blocker non-sedating antihistamine.
My blood pressure has gone up to 180 over 100. The only change I have made in my life style is to take Patanol eye drops for allergy eyes. I have been using them once daily for 4 months. Could it be that this antihistamine can be causing this increase in my blood pressure? I am allergic to the drugs used for controling blood pressure and prior to this successfully lowered my pressure by exercise and diet.It is normal for me to have a reading of 130 over 80. I am 59 years old. I weigh 110 pounds.
Do not mix antihistamines though such as an oral antihistamine and spray. Ocean Spray does not have an antihistamine and will simply dry you out and is safe to use with an antihistamine.
com will take you to all of the available antihistamine info. That same site also says that these antihistamine sleep aids are not for people with glaucoma or kidney disease.
- the symptoms improve from the drugs, but which drugs? The antibiotics or the antihistamine? The improvement *tends* to say that your problem is not Wegener's.
- the phlegm from years ago also tends against Wegener's, I think. Wegener's is a disease of blood vessels, not lung tissue. So why the phlegm? Maybe you have lung inflammation but no infection. So that could explain why the antihistamine might help. Did you ever take strong antihistamines without antibiotics?
I started to itch like crazy within about 10 minutes of being in the sun, again only the exposed areas (my chest,arms, neck and face). I am going to try a high UVA sunblock and I think I read that taking an antihistamine before going out might help. I know that you cannot offer me a definitive diagnosis, but why would I suddenly develop a sun sensitivity?
my face was red, gotten really scared and called my doctor, she told me to take an antihistamine. after a couple of minutes i was great. so i thought i was allergic to lysine, but after some time i tried to take another pill, just to see what would happen, and nothing did, i finished the box with no problem, no reaction. bought another one and finished it, again with no problem.
