   ACNE: The New Theory (Acne board)

22nd June 2005
I'm curious to hear proposed solutions, but the first thing that jumps to mind for me is would taking a simple anti-histamine help? Say benadryl?

Benadryl is first generation anti-histamine.

You're better off with a 2nd generation anti-histamine:


loratadine (claritin)
fexofenadine (allegra)

And as I said in the previous post vitamin B6 helps the enzyme, diamine oxidase, that processes histamine.
