For kids over 2 years, oral zyrtec or Claritin can also be used. Sometimes, Hydrocortisone 1% cream can decrease hives.

Drugs/herbs/supplements? New body products/soap? New detergents/fabric softeners? Talk to your doc right away if your lips are swelling or you have trouble breathing/swallowing. Good luck finding your triggers. Hope you feel better.
