Is taking 5mg percocet 3mg lorazepram and Claritin Bad?
Only the Claritin D version can make your drowsy; If you're tolerant enough to Percocet, that low of a dose of Lorazepam shouldn't even phase you, and I'd be willing to bet you're taking it as an augment for the Percocet rather than as a relaxant. The only thing is that Percocet, like most opiates, is a vasodilator, meaning it opens the blood vessels. Claritin, like most allergy meds, work by constricting blood vessels, so it may not work as well. You might consider something that works on a different mechanism, like Singulair. Though it's been primarily an asthma drug for many years, they've found it works great for allergies as well, and have recently begun marketing it as such. The difference is that it doesn't work like most allergy drugs like Claritin.

Does a low vitamin d level cause hives?
I can tell you, YES! I have low vitamin D levels 13 (normal is between 30-100) and I have broken out in hives every year for the past 3 years. Ever since I started getting low in D, my skin issues started. I did not associate the hives with the D level at first but after suffering miserably for a few years, I did my own research and found there to be a link. I've been through the gamut of allergy testing and diet but no link. I've been taking supplements to raise my D levels and minimize the outbreaks. It's a long process to raise your D as a few months of taking 50,000 IUs once a week, raised my D level up to 18. If you get hives regularly, make sure you get your D checked.
