Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns..

As per your complain it seems like you have an allergic reaction to some unknown allergen and itching all over the body that subsided with dexasone that has Steroid Dexamethasone and avil that is an anti histamine or anti allergic medication..

As the symptoms recurred it seems that you are exposed to allergen again.
You can very much take the same medication again while you can also take other anti allergics like Benadryl, Levocetrizine, Allegra etc..

You should consult Allergist and get evaluated and he can do allergic test to rule out the exact cause of allergic reaction and treatment can be done accordingly..

Hope this information helps..

Thanks and regards.
