Suggest Treatment For Swelling Caused By Wasp Sting In Pregnancy
My wife is 14 weeks pregnant and was just stung by a red wasp twice. Once on the wrist and once on the back. Her wrist and back has quite a bit of swelling and she has a sever family history of allergic reactions to wasp stings. What can she take for the swelling and is the baby going to be ok?

Hello, apply lactocalamine lotion on the affected area and ask her to take tablet cetrizine 10 mg twice a day for 3 days and she will be fine.
