Could Recurring Itchy Rashes Be Due To The Side Effect Of Benicar?

I ve had this hive type break out for approximately 6 months. It goes away for a brief period of time then it returns. It consist of a rash, itching skin and small red bumps. I thought maybe it was an reaction to Benicar which I ve been taking for about ten years.

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, urticarial rash is very likely and this could be self limiting no need to have anything, if this does not subsided then it may need some treatment and best would be "Tab Hydroxyzine 10 mg" three times in day, hope this information helps, take care and have a nice day
I find this answer helpful
