What causes hives in babies, how should I care for my child, and what do I need to know about the prescribed cetrizine syrup and Atarax syrup?

Asked by Male, 9 · 6 days ago

It can be worrying to see your child with hives, but they are very common and usually harmless. Hives are often triggered by viral infections, certain foods, or environmental allergies. To comfort your son, use cool compresses and dress him in loose cotton clothing. The doctor prescribed cetirizine and Atarax (hydroxyzine) syrups, which are both antihistamines that work together to safely relieve itching and swelling. Cetirizine is typically daytime-friendly, while Atarax can cause drowsiness and is often used to help him sleep comfortably. Please follow the exact dosages prescribed by your pediatrician.
