Hives From Dysport

I had an injection of dysport on Dec. 1. I have had hives. I have taken benedryl and zyrtec. When I try to stop, the hives come back. Has anyone had this happen to them? How long did the hives last.

Neurotoxin and hives

HIves or urticaria are caused by increased histamine release from a trigger. A work up by either a dermatologist or allergist for your trigger (which may not be the neurotoxin) may be helpful to treat this and prevent further episodes.
