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?
I went to the doctor for my hands and he gave me high powered topical cream and it was after using it for a couple days that the condition appeared on my feet. I cannot take any antihistamine or steroids orally because I am nursing and now have been using steroid cream for over 2 months. The condition will improve with the creams but still won't go away completely. Is there anything else I can try?
What kind were you taking?
Hi there,
Is your mother on chemotherapy? Some of the chemotherapeutic drugs can cause generalized itching and rashes all over the body. Discuss it with her treating oncosurgeon.Other causes of itchy sores all over body are allergies,dermatitis,urticaria or hives,scabies,pityriasis rosea.She may take an antihistamine like Benadryl for relief in symptoms. Application of calamine lotion may provide a soothing effect.
Well I am not a doctor,but I am going to nursing school as we speak and I would deff say you need to go back to the doctor. It might possibly be like a skin growth or maybe an irritation which can happen often but you need to go see someone becuz if it hasnt gone away yet thats not good. Sorry I couldnt be more of a help!
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.
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!
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.
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.
I sometimes have so much drainage that I have to take oral antihistamine, too. I hate it, because the oral antihistamine is so sedating.
I was diagnosed with reactive arthritis at age of 17. Today I am 32, and some months ago I adopted a cat from the streets. When he started sleeping in my room, I had to triple my anti-inflammatory dose for some reason. As if that wasn't strange enough, after I took an antihistamine to control my allergy to the cat, when I woke up the next day my pain was DRASTICALLY increased. It was almost like I didn't take any anti-inflammatory at all.
I have allergy and take antihistamine Claritin. Is it immune suppressive? I did some researches but not much talking about it. Hep b inactive status.
I WORK IN MEDICAL RECORDS AND HAVE WORKED IN THE NURSING AREAS IN THE HOSPITAL FOR MOST OF MY ADULT LIFE AND FROM WHAT I SEE ABOUT PATIENTS WHO ARE TAKING ALOT OF DRUGS THEY ARE TAKING A DRUG BECAUSE OF ANOTHER DRUGS SYMPTOMS. BE VERY CAREFUL WITH ALL THE MEDS. SOMETIMES IT BETTER TO FIND SOMETHING NATURAL IF YOU CAN. IF YOU CAN EAT HEALTY, AND EXERCISE REGULARY THIS MIGHT HELP YOU MORE THAN ANYTHING. GET TO KNOW WHAT TRIGGERS YOUR ALLERGY AND TRY TO STAY AWAY FROM IT.
