Question 2

I'm dealing with chronic liver disease, allergic rhinitis, bronchitis, and asthma, and I'm really worried about finding a safe antihistamine for my condition. Do you think options like Levocetirizine, Desloratadine, or Bilastine would be safe for me?

Accepted Answer

For someone with chronic liver disease, it's important to choose an antihistamine that has minimal impact on the liver.

Accepted Answer

It's not uncommon for oxygen levels to fluctuate slightly during sleep, especially after recovering from COVID-19 pneumonia. However, if the oxygen level drops below 90%, it could indicate a need for further monitoring. The elevated D-dimer suggests some ongoing inflammation or clotting risk, so its important to keep in touch with your healthcare provider to assess if further tests or treatments are needed.
