First, stop using Cotaryl cream immediately and gently rinse your under-eye area with cool water?avoid rubbing it. Yes, taking an oral antihistamine like Allegra (fexofenadine) is an appropriate and helpful step to reduce the swelling and inflammation. You can also apply a clean, cool compress to the area to soothe the skin. Please avoid applying any other creams for now. If the swelling affects your vision, worsens, or does not improve within 24 hours, please consult a healthcare professional for a safe, personalized evaluation.
