Brief Answer:
Take allopathic medicines

Detailed Answer:
Hello
Welcome To Ask A Doctor Service
I have gone through your question, I understand your concern.
Urticaria is non curable disease.
It can only be suppressed.
If you continue to take ayurvedic medication lifelong, then it will remain suppressed.
And same with allopathic medication.
But you should not take both.
And you can take either allopathic or ayurvedic, no issue.
But i would recommend you to take allopathic, because if your ayurvedic medication contains heavy metals, then it would affect your liver and kidney.
So make sure from your ayurvedic doctor, that ayurvedic medication does not contain heavy metals.
I hope your query is clear now.
Thanks and regards

kindly send image of ayurvedic medicine, you are talking about. You can upload the attachment or send it at YYYY@YYYY and address it to my name: Dr Diwashish Biswas

It would be better to ask your ayurvedic doctor whether these ayurvedic medicine contain heavy metals or not. Because only they know about content of these ayurvedic medicine.
Being an allopathic doctor,I donot have information about ayurvedic medicine.
but yes i can say , that no medicine is completely safe , every medicine has some side effects, be it allopathic or ayurvedic.
and it is better to tale allopathic medicine, because atlease there is defined side effect profile of allopathic medicine.
I hope your query is clear now.
Thanks and regards
