They even gave me Rantitine HCL 150 mg. It s not working .. Can I stop the Hydroxyzine??? I don t itch and the hives are gone??
Hello, Since you are experiencing side effects & discomfort after taking HY Chat Doctor.  Chronic hives need to be treated with Corticosteroids, do continue to take Prednisone.  You can take other histamines like Cetirizine(Zyrtec), etc which suit you better. For indigestion & gastritis, take antacids & PPI's, Pantoprazole-40 or Aripiprazole, one so when required.  In the meantime, avoid scratching, wear loose cotton clothing, apply calamine or aloe vera based moisturizer before going outdoors. Apply cool compress. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Take care
