I've been dealing with this urticaria since last October, and I've been taking citrazin every day, but it hasn't helped at all. I'm thinking of trying livcon capsules and assicon syrup now. Do you think these might work for my urticaria?

For urticaria, it is important to identify the underlying cause and treat it accordingly. Instead of Livcon capsule and Assicon syrup, I would recommend you to try Allegra (Fexofenadine) 180mg once daily in the morning along with Ranitidine 150mg twice daily. These medications are more effective in controlling urticaria symptoms compared to Livcon and Assicon. Make sure to consult with your doctor before starting any new medication.

I'm wondering if it's okay to use halox lotion for my dandruff and then apply minoxidil afterward every day. I'm really trying to manage both my dandruff and hair growth, but I'm a bit worried if using both these products so close together might cause any problems. What do you think?

itis generally safe to use both Halox lotion and minoxidil if applied at different times, but its important to: Wait a while (30 minutes to 1 hour) between the applications. Use the steroid lotion only as directed to avoid overuse or skin thinning. Consult your doctor to ensure the combination is appropriate for your situation.
