Do niacine supplements help with chronic idiopathic hives? if not, what does? i've had hives for a year and a half.

Frustrating Prob: No evidence niacin helps. Have you tried taking both OTC antihistamine (benadryl) AND H-2 Blocker (Pepcid, Tagamet) together????? See an allergist for stronger Prescription medications with same actions as above
