Is Tylenol Advisable For Itching On The Body Due To Gluten Intolerance?

My son is nine months and I m thinking he might have a wheat or gluten allergy that causes him to be very itchy and he has a bit of a red rash. I had left over hydrocortisone prescription from when he was younger and applied it but he s very uncomfortable. I don t have allergy medicine but I was wondering if Tylenol helps itchiness at all? I don t know what to do for him and no stores around me are open

Hi,

As per your history, tab. Tylenol do not have anti allergic action. So it will not help in allergy. So kindly consult with pediatrician for proper examination and he may require syp. Fexofenadine and Hydrocortisone ointment. Kindly avoid food containing gluten for that take consultation of dietitian.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
