Hello,
Thanks for writing to Health Care Magic, I am Dr Muhammd Ahmad, I have closely read your question and I understand your concerns, I will hereby guide you regarding your health related problem.
Allergy can be caused because of anything , any drug even food, clothes , cosmetics can cause allergy on whole body not just the place of contact.
Usually when we talk about drugs, although theoretically all the drugs on earth can cause an allergy but antibiotics are considered to be the most notorious to have caused this.So even in your case, antibiotic will be the prime suspect. If you are not taking antibiotics since more than 3 days and still severity of allergy is the same then problem seems to be in the other two drugs.
It is very simple to control this problem, there are many other laxatives in the market you can chose those, and instead of omeprazole you can use pentoprazole or Ranitidine after talking to your doctor, if allergy is caused by any of these two drugs, it will subside.
With that you should also use an OTC anti histamin it may be 10mg Citrizine daily at night this will further dampen the effect of allergy producing substances.
Main stay in allergy control is to find what is causing it and then changing or avoiding it. You do not have to panic just follow my suggestion i am quite positive that you will feel better.
I hope this answered your question, if you have more feel free to ask,otherwise close the discussion and rate it.
