Brief Answer:
If you started the drugs recently, then this is likely!

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.

I am so sorry to hear about this problem that you have reported. I have reviewed your information fully. Hives are not common with either of these medications. However, if these hives started just about the time you started these drugs, I suspect them and immediate stop the medications until this is sorted out. Zyrtec has no effect on blood pressure. I will suggest that you take it for the hives now. Finally, communicate these latest findings to your doctor so that he would follow up and adjust the medications accordingly.

I wish you well. Feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be.
