[|Human|] Hi Doc, My mother got the hair dye allergies as bumps in the forehead and also near the eyes. She had V care hair shampoo cum hair dye 2 days back. Since the swallon got increased marginally we took her to the near by dermatologist. Doctor has prescribed defcort -6mg, cetrizine & pantocid D cap. Do we need to do any further action on this. How long will it take to recover. Is there any food restriction while taking this medicines. Kindly suggest us
[|AI|]  HI, thanks for using Chat Doctor The effort is a steroid and the cetirizine is an anti histamine. These medications should be adequate to treat her allergic response. There should be some improvement within 24 to 48 hours. It may not be complete improvement at that time, but it would then continue to resolve. There are no food restrictions, but she should make sure that she uses the steroid on a full stomach to avoid irritation of the stomach lining. It should be used on mornings after breakfast or tea. I hope this helps
