Hello,
Welcome to HCM,
Allegra topical cream temporarily relieves pain and itching associated rashes.
Any drug will have his own side effects, similarly it will be there with Allegra cream.
Most common side effects are hypersensitivity,local irritation,photosensitivity and rashes.
The symptoms what you are having are may be due to allergy to the allegra cream.
Thank you.
