Brief Answer:
Need to change medicine dosage

Detailed Answer:
Hi again

You have developed a generalised eczematous skin reaction .
I would surely not advise you to take deco a injections intermittently like the way you gave been taking .
You need to be on short term course of oral steroids and you can discuss this with your treating doctor .
You can start with application of Lobate cream mixed with Vaseline lotion over the affected areas of body twice a day after taking bath.
Take Allegra 120 mg on morning with 180 mg tablet at night.
You need to increase the dosage of certain drugs so as to bring the allergy under control.
Dont apply mustard oil over body .
Wear cotton clothes.

I am sure this will help you .
