Suggest Treatment For Severe Hives On The Body

I have had Hives covering my entire body for 3 weeks now. my Dr. keeps telling me to take OC allergy med s - I have tried several, they relive a little itching for an hour or so at best. I have taken Oatmeal baths etc.. But the hives are always there .. at times they flair up so bad they hurt. I have had them in my mouth on my tongue, in my nose, on my eyelids an and all around my eyes. She (my Dr.) did give me an EpiPen and told me to call 911 if they cut off my breathing..!! I am at a loss, is there anything else I can do. I am miserable - in pain and crying.. can you please help me.. !

I really appreciate your concern, the best drug for allergic condition if not responding to other antihistamine is "Hydroxyzine 10 mg " dose need to be taken according to weight, three times in a day this is nothing to worry, hope this information helps, take care and have a nice day.
