I Took 25mg Of Adarax One Hour Ago For An Aergic Reaction To Insulation, My Welts Haven't Gone Away Yet Should Take More

Need to know if I should take another 25mg adarax. Took one an hour ago and my welts and rash havnt gone away. Have rash and welts all over arms from contact with Insulation. Not sure how to make this go away or what else to try and how long to wait to try it after having taken the one pill already. I am 37 ur old male, 6'0" 210 lbs

Hello, Siebz936! How are you?

This most likely isn't actually an allergic reaction. Fiberglass insulation contains very fine glass fibers, thus the name. It tends to prick the skin, which causes the itching and irritation. However, what this also means is that an antihistamine won't help, since it's not due to an allergy. You need to take a nice warm shower, scrubbing your skin to remove as much of the fibers as possible and then it will just make some time for your skin to heal up.

Something topical, if your doctor says it's safe for to use, such as Calamine lotion may help more than taking something systemic.

The FDA lists this medication as an antihistamine that is also sometimes used for its sedative like effects. Typical side effects are listed as possibly including dizziness, drowsiness and somnolence.

Is there anything else I can help with?
