Drink other liquor instead. Or take benadryl when you really want to drink vodka. It's really effective.

Most of the people I know that has allergy to vodka suffers chest tightness and rashses on the neck. Be sure once you are drinking and your friend has allergy to vodla give the person other drinks or better to have antihistamine tablets with you.

Any antihistamine will help.

Avoid drinking, yes, but just in case you are in a situation where you can't avoid it (or if you accidentally take it), keep antihistamine tablets handy. smile

Yeah if you find yourself in a situation where vodka is the available drink, just decline or just drink a little amount. Antihistamines will then help when your hives come out. But if you drink a lot of it, chances are the antihistamines will not totally relieve your discomfort. you might also have an anaphylactic shock.

It's better to get prescription meds from your doctor for allergies on vodka. Whenever you drink vodka, you will be ready for sudden alergy attacks and it'll better if you avoid drinking vodka.

Is antihistamine the cure for this type of allergies?
