Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Levocet has fewer side effects and is more effective comparing to Atarax.
In my opinion she should take Levocet orally once a day in the evening, up to 10 days, depending from the response. She can also continue using calamine lotion.
Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
