"I am 64 years old and suddenly developed a severe itch on my hands, back, legs, etc. The itching was intolerable. I went to my local clinic and was prescribed Aerius tablets 5 mg x 1 per day, with Aristocort 3 x a day. Neither medication relieved my condition one bit. My hands are so swollen and red, and now the rash has spread to my feet. The GP said at the time both medications would give me relief in a few hours. They didn't, and now it's 10 hrs later. I am so sore, itchy, and swollen, and it's 10 pm, so I'm going to the hospital."
