Itchy, Is It Safe To Treat It With Benadryl ?

I was diagnosed with Hepatitis A a week ago, my symptoms began two weeks ago, I have had a rash develop on my body and am treating it with benadryl. My doctor just recommended bed rest before I got the hives. Is this new symptom also from the hepatitis and is it safe to treat it with benadryl ?
