Hello,

Rashes or inflammation appearing in the hands and the feet are side effects of the medication you have been taking. It looks like you are almost addicted to it.

Ideally, if you have DNS, you should go for surgery so that your allergic reactions gets reduced. You can take some other brands antihistamine (antiallergic) that suits you better. Report to your treating doctor & get a follow-up treatment done.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
