Alaspan contains loratadine, an antihistamine. A common side effect of loratadine is dryness in the mouth and throat, which can easily feel like a sore throat. This is generally harmless and temporary. I suggest drinking plenty of water to help soothe the dryness. You can safely stop taking the medication to see if the symptom improves, but please consult your doctor to find a suitable alternative for your allergies. If you develop a fever, difficulty swallowing, or if the pain worsens, please seek medical attention.

Developing a rash after a fever is quite common and is often a harmless response to a viral infection or a reaction to fever medication. To relieve the itching, you can take an over-the-counter antihistamine like cetirizine or loratadine. Applying calamine lotion or taking cool baths can also soothe your skin. Avoid hot water and scratching. Please consult a doctor to help identify the exact cause. Seek immediate medical attention if you experience any urgent symptoms like difficulty breathing, swelling of your face or throat, or if the rash begins to blister.

You can be reassured that PHLOGAM (containing trypsin, bromelain, and rutoside) and ALASPAN AM (containing loratadine and ambroxol) will not make the vaccine less effective, as they do not suppress your immune system. However, if you currently have an active infection, a fever, or are feeling quite unwell with your sore throat, it is generally best to wait until your symptoms fully resolve before getting your vaccine. This helps ensure that any temporary side effects of the vaccine are not confused with your illness. Please rest well, stay hydrated, and consult your doctor if your sore throat worsens.

Montair (montelukast) and Alaspan (loratadine) are great for allergies, but your ongoing sinus pain, headache, and congestion suggest significant inflammation or a potential sinus infection that antihistamines alone cannot resolve. For immediate relief, try steam inhalation, warm facial compresses, and over-the-counter saline nasal sprays to clear your passages. You can also take paracetamol or ibuprofen for the pain. Please consult a healthcare professional soon; you may benefit from a prescription nasal steroid spray or, if it is a bacterial infection, targeted antibiotics.

Since your symptoms?including the stinging, leaking, and bleeding?are spreading despite a week of taking fluconazole, luliconazole, HHZOLE, and Alaspan, it is important to have this re-evaluated by your doctor. Sometimes, the delicate skin can develop a secondary bacterial infection or an allergic reaction to the topical treatments, which requires a change in medication. Please do not worry, but do schedule a follow-up appointment soon so your doctor can safely adjust your treatment plan and bring you some much-needed relief.

Your symptoms suggest an allergic reaction, possibly triggered by dust or another environmental allergen. Itching of the hands and face, along with facial swelling, may occur in conditions such as allergic dermatitis, urticaria, or dust allergy. Antihistamines, such as loratidine, cetrizine, or fexofenadine, are commonly used to reduce itching and swelling, but should be taken as advised by a doctor. It is also important to reduce exposure to dust by keeping rooms clean, washing bedsheets regularly, wearing masks while cleaning, and avoiding known triggers. Applying a gentle moisturiser may help if the skin is dry or irritated. However, facial swelling should not be ignored, especially if it becomes severe or is associated with difficulty breathing, wheezing, throat tightness, or dizziness. These can be signs of a serious allergic reaction needing urgent medical attention. Avoid scratching the skin, as this can worsen irritation and lead to infection. If symptoms keep returning, a doctor may recommend allergy testing or further treatment depending on the exact cause.
