HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
You can use the anti histamine to help reduce the allergic response.
Asthmatics can use antihistamines especially since asthma is often associated with allergic conditions such as allergic sinusitis or allergic rhinitis.
The risk associated with the use of anti histamines in asthma is small and most do not have any problems.
If you remain concerned then you should consider discussing your concerns with your doctor.
I hope this helps
