Yes, it is very possible your medications are contributing to it. Specifically, Betnesol (betamethasone), which is a steroid, is known to irritate the stomach lining. Atarax (hydroxyzine) and Allegra (fexofenadine) can also occasionally cause mild digestive upset. Because you recently had diarrhea, your stomach was already sensitive, making it more vulnerable to medication-related irritation. To help, try taking these medications with food if you are still on them.

Could the Atarax, Allegra, and Betnesol I took for a sun allergy be causing my ongoing stomach pain, which started after a recent bout of diarrhea?
