I'm dealing with hives or urticaria every other day and Ive been taking Cetcip 10mg whenever I get these rashes. I'm wondering if it's okay to keep using this tablet. Is there a better way to completely cure these hives or urticaria, and what kind of medication should I really be looking at, and for how long?

Cetirizine is a commonly used antihistamine for treating hivesUrticaria. It is safe to take this tablet for relief from symptoms. However, for a more effective and long-term solution, you can consider taking a different class of antihistamines such as Allegra (Fexofenadine). Additionally, if the hivesUrticaria are severe or persistent, your doctor may prescribe a short course of corticosteroids like Prednisone for a few days to help control the inflammation. It is important to follow your doctor's advice regarding the duration of treatment with any medication.

View allI've been struggling with Exfoliative Cheilitis on my lips for the last 5 years and I'm really looking for some help. What can I do to treat this from the inside and the outside? I'm desperate to find a way to get rid of this condition. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
To treat it internally, you can try taking Vitamin B supplements to support lip health. Externally, you can apply a thin layer of hydrocortisone cream to reduce inflammation and promote healing. Additionally, using a lip balm with sunscreen protection can help protect your lips from further damage. For internal treatment, you can take Vitamin B complex supplement daily. For external treatment, apply hydrocortisone cream on the affected area. Use a lip balm with sunscreen protection during the day to protect your lips.

I've been dealing with some skin issues after using cosmolite cream on my face for about 45 days. My skin turned black and has become super sensitive since then. I've tried different medicines, but nothing seems to be helping. I went to see a dermatologist, and she suggested I go through 8 sittings to lighten my skin back to its original color. I'm really anxious if this treatment would be suitable for my skin, and I'd like to know if there are any possible side effects involved. Could you provide some guidance on this?
yes that would help you follow your doctors advice
