My LLMD mentioned that the nasal steroid spray was OK to take for 1-2 months if necessary for allergies, as in my case. Another data point.
I agree with Patsy about asking doctor - just wanted to pass this info. on - antihistamine supressess the allergic reaction - so though I read it on another forum - it still makes sense to me to try to avoid taking it - anyway asking the doc. about any 'drugs' is always a good idea.
I have seen LLMD's recommend antihistamines for Herx. reactions. I would ask your doctor or pharmacist about this so that you get correct information. Information obtained on forums is not always accurate as few of us are doctors or pharmacists. Only your doctor can tell you whether to take medications or not.
No I didnt know the last couple of days my rashes have been bad and I have had to take them ,only Claritin for 3 days one a day..oh crumbs it will itch
