How To Get Rid Of Allergic Reaction Leading To A Throat Block?

Hi, I am having a allergic reaction to something i drank. I drank this product like 3 or 4 hrs ago. Since then i have been really cold and having panic attacks my throat has swelled up i just feel really jittery. I was just wondering since my throat is swollen if it hasn't closed yet am i in the clear? I am freaking out i am trying to stay calm i just don't want my throat to close like i said it's been hours since i drank this product. Also i am having really bad tremors i can't stop shaking it's like my body temp dropped or something. Nothing like this has ever happened to me before.

HI, thanks for using healthcare magic

Any drink can cause an allergic reaction but would not cause panic episodes to occur.

You may be having panic episodes because you are worried about a potential reaction.

If you are having a reaction the use of an oral antihistamine would help.
If there is no improvement then you should visit your doctor for an assessment.
Steroids and additional treatment may be needed if the diagnosis is confirmed.

I hope this helps
