The tablet has probably been prescribed to you by a family physician and not a qualified dermatologist. 120 mg is a dose for mild respiratory allergies and not skin allergies which require 180-540mg per day. Also, it only suppresses allergies and cure requires evaluation of the root cause. Skin allergies require early and aggressive treatment otherwise they become long term
