Is There an over the Counter Med I Can Take to Help Reduce Swelling After Filler Injections?

Vixstew
I had a combo of Radiesse for my jawline and mouth corners and restalyne for my lip lines. It's been almost 24 hours and I have been icing the area. But is there an over the counter med I can take to reduce the swelling? I read something about Zyrtec and Benedryl. Is that helpful?
