Suggest Treatment For Sore Throat, Dry Cough And Itchy Eyelids

Hi I have stingy and itchy skin particularly on my arms which now has lots of sores on them . My throat and eye lids are also itchy . But my cough is the worse . It is dry and tends to be worse when I lie down and I ve started taking ventalin to control it. . This all started when I had a sore shoulder two montHs ago and was taking a combination of drugs ; - ibuprofen, Celebrex, pandadol forte, I had a really bad reaction , welts covered my body and the cough started. I stopped all medication until I went to the doctOrs who gave me coritizone. This really worked but was only short term . I have been back to the doctors who then put me on ranitidine. This eased the itch but now is coming back and so the cough gets worse
