Hi,
Allergic reactions to any natural agents or any synthetic agents are due to the sudden immunologic splurge to the foreign agents. It should be subsided in two ways. First, the agent causing allergic reaction should be withdrawn and prevent any further exposure and treating the reaction to the agent with the help of cortico-steroids which inhibit the immunologic reactions. Over the counter Calamine lotion can be applied topically to the allergic rashes.
Similarly, the drug causing the allergic reaction should be stopped and prevent any further exposure to the drug. Acute reactions should be cured be corticosteroid injections and anti-histaminics. Intensive care may be needed in case of severe reactions. Discuss with the emergency care specialist for further management.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
