Common Questions and Answers about Antihistamine itching skin

antihistamine

Avatar n tn My daughter is suffering from eczema from the time she was 2 months old. Her Ped prescribed antihistamine for itching. We are concerned about the side effects. She does not have any immune system related issues. Her itching increases during the night time and it has been severe since the past 2-3 weeks. Only now we started giving her antihistamine and are concerned about the side effects. Is there any other way to stop her itching.
Avatar n tn I moved from a very humid climate to a dry, colder climate/higher altitude this winter. Since moving here, we both have developed rashes throughout our body. Dry skin, kind of scaly but not quite, just noticible, red patches some no bigger than a dime some larger. They itch too. I have to assume that this is due to the climate change, but wonder what would be good treatment. I have tried a combination of a good moisturizer mixed with hydrocortisone cream with no luck.
Avatar n tn Hello, Itchy skin that isn't accompanied by other obvious skin changes, such as a rash, is most often caused by dry skin (xerosis). Dry skin usually results from environmental factors that you can wholly or partially control. These include hot or cold weather with low humidity levels, long-term use of air conditioning or central heating, and washing or bathing too much. Other conditions cause itchy skin as well.
Avatar f tn The itching never goes away unless I take an antihistamine. I am really sensitive to medications in general; having to take something every day really wipes me out. With 4 kids this is hard. I have always gone the natural route with everything, so this kind of scares me. What will long term, daily use of this med do to my body and will I gradually need more as time goes on. Is there another way?

And after itching over their leaves red bums for a while. Its happens only for few minutes after then nothing. Due this problem i'm having an black sptted skin on my back close to neck area.

It also happens when I get emotionally stressed, suprised, or angry. I can't get emotional without the itching affecting me.
Avatar n tn People who are sensitive or allergic to certain metals may react to pigments in the skin with swelling and/or itching, and/or oozing of clear fluid called serum. Such reactions are quite rare, however, and some artists will recommend performing a test patch. For those who are allergic to latex, many artists are using non-latex or will use non-latex gloves if asked.
Avatar m tn The skin bumps are likely a secondary skin infection which is common with feline itching. Chlorpheniramine maleate 4mg tablets are a mild inexpensive antihistamine effective to help reduce cat itching and allergies. If there are no parasites such as fleas, there are many other allergens to which your cat is allergic causing the itching. An organic oatmeal bath is helpful to sooth irritated skin. Your vet can also determined the exact allergen.

Avatar f tn Hi, It may be possible that you were exposed to the poisonous sap of some plants such as poison ivy, oak or sumac. The usual symptom of poisoning is a severe itching of the skin. Later, a red inflammation and a blistering of the skin occurs. In severe cases, oozing sores develop. The rash spreads by the poisonous sap or urushiol, not as the result of contamination from sores.
Avatar n tn I found that I was waking up itching the other night on my chest, I presumed it was just dry skin or heat, but the itching has got worse and worse and spread to my entire body. Scalp, neck, back chest etc - all over. Have tried Piriton & Eurax cream to no avail, doc prescribed cetrizine anti allgery tabs & calamine lotion. These have had no effect at all. This is my 2nd night up with no chance of sleep. The itching is driving me insane & I cannot sleep at all.
