How Can Allergic Reaction To Yellow Jacket Bite Be Treated?

I get all swollen and actually sick from a Yellow Jacket bite. I have forgotten the name of the injection and or cream that was given to me in the mountains when it happened. Could you please give your opinion on exactly what it was. Thank you...M. Pohorence

Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
Best and immediate treatment for any allergy is injection Avil and Dexona.
Since you these are prescribed drugs, you need to consult doctor for this.
You are take oral combination of antihistamine (levocetrizine or fexofenadine) and anti allergic (montelukast) and apply mometasone cream on bite for faster recovery. These are over the counter drugs.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
