The : The odds of you having an allergic reaction from a Plan B taken three weeks ago are highly unlikely. Even if this was the case, there is no treatment aside from over the counter Benadryl (diphenhydramine) for itching. Consider other potential allergens like new products, lotions, or soaps.
Good luck.

Rash/hives: I agree with Dr. Jackson. Rash/ Hives three weeks after taking Plan B doesn't put it at all high on the list of possible culprits.
