Answer 3

Many allergic rashes can be treated by taking an anti-histamine (like Benadryl/diphendryamine). This worked for me when I had an allergic reaction to a medication some years ago and it remains a standard (from what I understand) by most physicians for similar allergic reactions. However, if your blisters and rash appear unaffected by this treatment or they reoccur even when you avoid the food (cashews) that you thought caused the original rash, see a doctor. It's possible that you may require epinephrine or other treatment to help your body manage the reaction effectively.

What is the treatment for hives?

The goal of treating most cases of ordinary urticaria is to relieve symptoms while the condition goes away by itself. The most commonly used oral treatments are antihistamines, which help oppose the effects of the histamine leaked by mast cells. The main side-effect of antihistamines is drowsiness.

Many antihistamines are available without prescription, such as diphenhydramine (Benadryl), taken in doses of 25 milligrams and chlorpheniramine (Chlor-Trimeton), taken in a dose of 4 milligrams. These can be taken up to three times a day, but because these medications can cause drowsiness they are often taken at bedtime. Those who take them should be especially careful and be sure they are fully alert before driving or participating in other activities requiring mental concentration. Loratadine (Claritin, 10 milligrams) is another preparation that is also available over-the-counter and is less likely to cause drowsiness.

Antihistamines that need a prescription include hydroxyzine and cyproheptadine. Sometimes physicians combine these with other types of antihistamines, such as ranitidine and cimetidine. This antihistamine list is not exhaustive. Physicians individualize treatment plans to suit specific patients, and modify them depending on the clinical response.

Oral steroids (prednisone, Medrol) can help severe cases of hives in the short-term, but their usefulness is limited by the fact that many cases of hives last too long for steroid use to be continued safely.

Topical therapies for hives include creams and lotions which help numb nerve endings and reduce itching. Some ingredients which can accomplish this are camphor, menthol, diphenhydramine (Benadryl), and pramoxine. Many of these topical preparations require no prescription. Cortisone-containing creams (steroids), even strong ones needing a prescription, are not very helpful in controlling the itch of hives.

Answer 5

Get an antihistamine from the drug store .eg. benadryl. ask the pharmacist. Your body is having an allergic reaction, releasing histamine. This causes the redness and rash. Try not to scratch.
Go to your doctor the next day. If it gets worse, go to the hospital whenever. They can give you better medication.....stay strong...

Answer 6

1. don't cashews again 2. Take some Benedryl, it is an antihistamine, which is needed to block is going on. 3. Go to your Doctor and tell them what has happened. 4. Ask them for a corticosteroid like a Prednisone step-down pack, Decadron shot, or Solu-Medrol shot. It will clear up.

Answer 7

Take some Benadryl or Claritin. Any antihistamine will work. Get some cortisone ointment for the rash, and stay away from cashews!

Answer 8

Benadryl will releive the itching, but be careful it will cause drowsiness. For the rash on your neck you can use OTC hydrocortisone cream. If the rash persists you may want to consult an MD for a stronger steriod cream or a steriod pill.

Answer 9

I used Aloe Vera Gel. A pharmacist suggested a cream that didn't work. But the next day I used aloe vera gel and it Mostly cleared up through the night.

Answer 10

Well, first thing: rewash all of your clothes, and stop wearing the ones that were washed in Tide. Secondly, get some hydrocortisone cream to help with the itching.
