Brief Answer:
Antihistamines to be continued...

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

I would start with antihistamines like levocetrizine for 3 days. If the itching is too severe a steroid like prednisolone should be started.

If it started after a food, may be the allergen is from one of the food ingredients. It's better to avoid the same in future.

Hope this helps. Let me know if you need clarifications.
