Frequent Urticaria
Hello Doctor,
I am suffering from urticaria for last 6 months. First episode occurred when I was on 120mg dosage of febucip along with curzest. I am suffering with high uric acid levels and therefore on low protein diet.
I have consulted with dermatologist and taking dyslor 5 mg daily. While taking Medicine its fine.
Apart from that my ESR and SGPT levels are slightly on higher side.
Kindly suggest !!

Urticaria is basically an allergic reaction. First we need to try to identify the trigger. Sometimes, even with extensive search on enquiry to find the trigger one might not succeed, many doctors prefer to do autologous serum testing because in some cases patients develop allergy to some antigen in their own serum and with repeated injections this sensitivity can be subdued. When no cause is detected, in such cases of Idiopathic urticaria need to continue with medicines to keep the allergic response subsided. Febucip (fexofenadine) and Deslor (desloratidine) are pretty safe medications even on long term use. Hope this helped.
