What Causes Hives All Over Body After Having Cymbalta?

My husband just started taking Cymbalta less than a month ago and is breaking out in hives in different places all over his body. Sometimes it s a lot and other times, not so much. He had a giant one on his eyelid yesterday. I ve been giving him benedryl pills. He also started taking pine bark extract capsules 200mg/day and L-Arginine HCL capsules 1800mg/day to help with ED around the same time. At first thought it was the pine bark, now I see that Cymbalta can cause giant hives as a side effect. Any suggestions
