Treatment for urticaria usually requires selecting appropriate medication based on the type and severity of symptoms, and it is recommended to use it under the guidance of a doctor. The following are common medication options for reference:
1. **Anthiamines:** This is the most common treatment method, helping to relieve itching and redness. Examples include cetirizine and loratadine. Some medications may cause drowsiness; it is recommended to choose the appropriate dosage form according to your doctor's prescription.
2. **Topical medications:** For mild local symptoms, topical antipruritic products such as calamine lotion can be used to help relieve skin discomfort, but they usually need to be used in conjunction with oral medications.
3. **Medication for Severe Cases**: If symptoms recur or severe reactions such as difficulty breathing occur, the doctor may prescribe corticosteroids or other prescription medications for a short period of time, and the dosage and course of treatment must be strictly followed.
It is recommended to keep a record of factors that may trigger urticaria, such as food and environmental changes, and avoid scratching the skin. If symptoms persist or worsen, please seek medical attention promptly to adjust the treatment plan; do not self-medicate for extended periods.
