Hi,

You seem to suffer from chronic urticaria. You should be investigated to find out the cause. The drug you take may be responsible. You cosult dermatologist. If some cause is found, it may be treated. If drug is responsible, take other substitute after discussing with your doctor. Antihistaminics like desloratidine or fexofenadine may be taken for long time. Short course of steroids may be considered. I think you may be alright. I hope you got my answer.

Thanks.
