Is Skin Rashes And Itching Sensation On Hand, Neck And Leg Due To Long Term Intake Of Kroger Sleeping Aid?

I am 65 year old lady, I was constantly taking Kroger sleeping aid during night and some time 2 tabs at a time. Now for the last one week I developed skin rashes and itching sensation on hand and near neck and here and there in the leg also. I changed my moisture lotion thinking that I might have developed some allergy due to body lotion what may be reason doctor ? Can you help to come out of the this problem.

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I can understand your problem, your allergic rash could be due to the body lotion and may not be due to sleeping aid, if I would be your doctor then I would advise you to stop both the lotion and sleeping even after stopping these symptoms persists till few days then it could be hypersensitivity reaction then it needs long acting antihistamine "Levocetirizine 10 mg " twice in day, have nice day.
