What to do if repeated anti-allergy treatments for hives don’t work?

Repeated anti-allergy treatment for urticaria does not work, and the symptoms can be relieved by actively searching for the cause of the disease and changing anti-allergy drugs.
1. Actively search for the cause of the disease:
(1) The causes of urticaria are complex and can be divided into endogenous and exogenous. Endogenous mostly persistent, such as mental and endocrine factors, systemic diseases, chronic insidious infections. Exogenous mostly transient, such as drug factors, food factors, physical factors.
(2) If repeated anti-allergy treatments are ineffective, it may be due to failure to find the cause of the disease. It is recommended that patients actively search for the cause of the disease and avoid it, in order to prevent the recurrence of the disease.
2. Changing anti-allergy drugs:
(1) If a drug is ineffective, it may be due to the patient’s insensitivity to this type of drug or the condition is more serious, can be replaced with other antihistamines, such as cetirizine, loratadine and so on. If necessary, two antihistamines can be used in combination.
(2) If the treatment with antihistamines is ineffective, the use of immunosuppressants such as cyclosporine can be considered. If the treatment with the above drugs is not effective, glucocorticosteroids, such as prednisone, can be used as appropriate to control the condition. All of the above drugs should be used under the guidance of a doctor to avoid blind use of drugs, so as not to cause discomfort.
Patients are advised to keep a good attitude, go to the hospital in time, and actively cooperate with the doctor’s treatment. The use of medication should follow the doctor’s instructions.
