Having allergic reaction to depo shot. I had my very first ever on April 29th and experiencing facial swelling and red rash on face, neck and inside of my arms. If there anyway to counteract this? All medicines I ve taken will not make the symptoms go away!

Hi !! For allergic reaction you should take tablet prednisolone and levocetrizine and apply cream containing cortisone on the affected areas but I don't know whether these will be available over the counter in your country.
