Can I mix fexofenedrine and levocitirizine?

I have just been prescribed fexofenedrine for dermatographism, having taken levocitirizine for a long time. I have taken fexofenedrine for two days, but by late afternoon I am suffering severe itchyness. Can I take levocitirizine now to let me get some sleep?

    Although there is no contraindication between the two medication, I would take Levocitirizine at bed time. Both are used for allergies;however, Levocitirizine might provide better itching releif. If you are taking Fexofenadine for Allergies, you would want to ask your provider about inhaled antihistamines that are used for allergy symptoms, Eg Astepro, Patanase, ect.
