Detailed Answer:
Hi
Thanks for being at healthcaremagic
I am Dr Asmeet Kaur Sawhney, a dermatologist.
For drug reaction I usually recommend my patients to take antihistaminic like tablet levocetrizine 5 mg twice daily and apply soothing lotion like calamine lotion on the affected areas twice daily for 5-7 days.
This should resolve the reaction.

Dr Asmeet
