Skin Allergy

In times of high exposure to harmful external factors, including various types of chemical substances, allergic skin reactions are becoming more common in society. If changes occur that may be caused by skin allergy, you should consult a dermatologist to determine the cause and select pharmacological therapy. A wide range of preparations for skin allergies includes over-the-counter drugs and medical devices. Oral medications come in the form of tablets or drops and contain active substances with antihistamine effects (cetirizine, loratadine, dimetindene). Tablets of this type inhibit the action of histamine - a substance responsible for allergic reactions, and also reduce skin itching. Preparations for external, local use for skin allergies include hydrocortisone ointment with anti-inflammatory, anti-itching and vasoconstrictive properties, and dimetindene ointment with strong anti-itching properties.
