   allergy shot reactions (Allergies board)

7th July 2007
You aren't on an oral med? Allegra, zyrtec, etc? Only the astelin? And how big was the redness/etc at the injection site? Anything quarter size or smaller I wouldn't worry about...but I would get on an oral med..at least for the day of your injection. If you have allergies bad enough for injections, then either you should be on something more than astelin or I would question your choice of physicians.

I only take the astelin. My red spot is about the size of a half dollar. I think i will try benedryl for this week and see if it helps.
thanks!
