How do you get relief from hives?
Question:
Answers:
I have chronic hives so I have to deal with this a lot. Benadryl is supposed to stop the itching (scratching hives only makes them worse) and it's what I use but I don't like it because it makes me really drowsy. If your boyfriend's hives are really bad/everywhere, you can try Claritin (I had to use it when I developed a bee allergy- more hives. Agh!). It's over the counter now and clears up hives. I've also used Zyrtec before but that prescription. My breakouts now are usually mild enough that I can tolerate it without medecine. You can also buy an anti-itch cream to put on the hives to stop the itching.

Soak in a cool oatmeal bath - or get him aveeno bath. He can also take an over the counter antihistemine like Benedryl. Expect the hives to stick around awhile.
Benadryl will most likely help although it can make you drowsy you could also try to take an oatmeal bath.you can get both of these at a pharmacy and will help the bath is to sooth the irritation from the hives and the benadryl is to help with the reaction and the hives.they both are safe.
Benadryl makes a capsule specifically for hives
I had a problem with hives that seemed to come from nowhere. Turned out I'm allergic to aspirin. Probably not his problem.The Doctor had me take Claritin. Worked great. Hives are caused by an allergy, could be anything. Buy Claritin at any drug store and Walmart.
