Avatar n tn How long can i use antihistamine for my daughter aged 7 months to relieve her of the eczema itching.
666921 tn?1254990618 I personally don't take antihistamine but just some advice I read that - antihistamine suppresses the immune system - never thought about it before - they work like steroids - some very good advice on another forum was - do not take antihistamine if you have lyme I am sure some of you already knew this but just thought I would mention it
888736 tn?1241040977 You can apply some calamine lotion at the rash as it will help in soothing the skin. You can take some OTC oral antihistamine medications like Benadryl or Claritin and see if it helps. For mild-moderate symptoms a weak steroid may be used.Also use good quality moisturizers to prevent moisture loss from the skin. If still the symptoms do not improve then pls get a clinical examination done by a dermatologist. I hope that helps.
Avatar f tn 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?
Avatar m tn I did not know I was poisoning myself for a couple years taking spoiled cetirizine bought at the Sam's Club. At least two giant bottles with small one attached. Can not sweat out cause it has damaged my heart & blackout to try to sweat .Intestines will not work, laxative every day chronic constipation on liquid Ensure never constipated whole life. kidneys trying & urinating constantly,Very hard to stay hydrated. Very bloated. Dizzy & blacking out. Thyroid nodules.
Avatar f tn And they only occur when I am outdoor for a short period of time. I took antihistamine to try to control. It didnt help, since this was the first time and I was camping I thought maybe I got bite my a insect (no sun block). That wasnt it. My face and hand was the only thing the sun touch because i had long sleeves on. In the morning my face was swollen veryyyy itchy and clear fluid was on my face.
Avatar m tn I woke up and vomited at night, the next day I had diarrhea and low grade fever with extreme muscle ache. I assume that this is close to a flu-like symptoms or food poisoning. I took medication and was back to normal the next day. Around two weeks later, I developed a red itchy rash all over my back, it spread to my arms and my face. I took Antihistamine and it cleared up the next day.
Avatar n tn What kind were you taking?
Avatar n tn Apply calamine lotion at the site of the lesions and see if it helps. You could take some oral antihistamine medications like cetrizine or loratadine. You need to maintain a good personal hygiene . Anti-itch drugs, often antihistamine, may reduce the itch during a flare up of eczema, and the reduced scratching in turn reduces damage and irritation to the skin. Moisturizing is one of the most important self-care treatments for sufferers of eczema.
612551 tn?1450022175 I had prior to the vet visit above been given Wilson one half Benedryl 25 mg Antihistamine morning and evening, in the hope it would clear up the paw problem. A couple weeks of this did not produce any improvement. I then checked and saw recommendations to use 1 - 2 mg per pound. As Wilson is j20+ pounds my does level was low. I have decided to continue giving him Benadryl but now one 25 mg capsule morning and night. Hope it keeps his paws and general itch problems under control.
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 f tn 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!
Avatar f tn t sound like food poisoning. Food poisoning is from contaminated foods - usually raw foods like pico de gallo or chopped salads. Or meats that have been improperly cooked or have been placed back on the platter where they were stored when raw. It can also occur if you're browning meat and are using a slotted utensil throughout the process where raw pieces of the meat are stuck in the slots of the utensil and are reintroduced into the cooked meat.
Avatar f tn on oct 9 i was taken to er for being ill and was told have a little carbon monixde poisoning, is this the reason of itching? i only get red bumps after scratching for awhile and have tried creams and bendaryl with no results please HELP!!

1661682 tn?1313135396 Unfortunately, so can food poisoning. Food poisoning generally lasts a shorter amount of time then a virus. If it lasts for a day or less, it's probably food poisoning. Food poisoning sets in 12-24 hours after consumption of the contaminated product.
Avatar n tn No, I don't believe so, unless the food poisoning was a chemical poisoning. Could be a fungus.
Avatar f tn I ended up in the ER last night with severe vommitting And diarrhea (tmi sorry) ended up getting 3 bags of fluid. The dr said they ran some blood test and everything pointed to viral but no one else has gotten sick..... Yet.... I'm freaking out that maybe it was food poisoning and I'm reading all these horrible things about food poisoning. Has anyone else had to deal with this? Any words of comfort from you guys before I can speak to my dr on Monday?
Avatar n tn Veramystâ„¢ (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.
2026302 tn?1334731062 I'm 29 weeks and suffered from food poisoning early this morning.I was wondering if anyone knew if it has any side.effects on the baby.
Avatar f tn I have hyperthyroidism and have had it for 23 years and I'm 38. I have been on every dose of Synthroid and my TSH was 66 on 300mcg. I am now taking 5 1grain Armour Thyroid pills a day. This year I have had sun poisoning three times and have had sunscreen on. I'm super sensitive for some reason this year. I also have dark skin spots on my face. Getting annoyed. Has anyone else had these problems??
Avatar f tn Good poisoning is so much worse while pregnant! I just spent 14 hours in a hospital hooked up to fluids because i was so dehydrated from vomiting severely because of food poisoning. I hope no one else endures that while pregnant.
