Beer Allergy If the allergic reaction is severe, consult a physician for appropriate antiallergic medication. In some cases, antibiotics may also be prescribed. If itching occurs after an allergic reaction to beer, calamine lotion can be applied topically to relieve itching and alleviate allergic symptoms. To reduce the risk of alcohol-induced allergic reactions, it is advisable to limit alcohol consumption.
