Suggest Treatment For Hives While On Carvedilol

This issues requires proper attention
Detailed Answer:
Hello Ma'am
After going through the details provided by you I understand your concern.
Hives or Urticaria is form of skin rash which can develop as a result of allergy to some food stuff, medicine or any other irritant.
Carvedilol is a very good antihypertensive and as you were taking it from a long time without any issues. So an allergy developing towards it after so many years looks a bit unlikely although not impossible. As you have got a refil of Carvedilol so my advise to you is to first check the expiry date of the medicine which you have got and also check whether it is from the same brand or not.
If everything looks good then review with your food intake in the last few days, if you have eaten something new which you usually don't.
If everything looks fine and you still feel that these hives are due to medicine only then it's highly advisable to consult your treating doctor personally at earliest as you need to be switched to some other antihypertensive.
Once we develop allergy to some medicine it has to be changed.
Hope to helpful. If you have any other doubts feel free to ask me back.
I wish you good health
