Zyrtek As A Blocker To Wheat Allergy?

My 10 year old has skin issues and has been diagnosed with cold induced asthma. I’ve been doing some research on wheat allergies and I’m thinking it is possible he may have wheat allergy. I’m going to contact my allergist specialist, but in the mean time, does anyone know if zyrtek blocks an allergic reaction of hives throughout the day if taken in am??? If he doesn’t take his zyrtek, his body becomes inflamed with hives and itch him severly. He has been tested for indoor/outdoor allergies and it comes back as allergic to all which is a skin condition. So we don’t know if he allergic to anything like that, but it seems as though wheat may be a culprit. Any answers??

    You should consider a blood test then. His skin may be too inflammed to get an accurate reading, especially if the “null” or “saline” came back positive.
    For the love of God, make sure that you son is getting plenty of Omega-3 fatty acids, eliminate beef, dairy, and cheese. This will change the fat metabolic pathway balance from inflammatory (arachadonic) to anti-inflammatory.
    Yes, Zyrtec is a one of the best 12-24-hour antihistamine medications. It has a strong affinity for H1 receptors, making one of the few medications approved for low density and high density allergen situations (indoor/outdoor allergies). It may be covering up a food allergy. Zyrtec is indicated for chronic urticaria.
