What is the normal value of IgE level. My report shows 291 and I have chronic urticaria. Am I allergic. Does antihistamine reduce IgE level?

Yes, elevated IgE normal usually under 100 to 120 IU per ml suggests allergy tendency. Antihistamines relieve symptoms but do not lower IgE levels. Chronic urticaria often requires lifestyle tracking and ongoing care.
