Urticaria meds

2018-09-21 19:20:59
I have urticaria and have just been prescribed cetrizine plus ranitidine instead of my usual anit histamines. However, within two hours of taking cetrizine I am itching already. Can I take a loratidine as well? I've just taken my first dose of ranitidine but no joy yet.

Stop Eggs/Nonveg. You may take loratidine also if you have not to drive any vehicle.
