I just can't stop taking Aspirin..Dr. Orders. I was on Plavix which made blotches even worse. I need to reduce red blotches that last for weeks whiles others take their place. A never ending situation.

Try taking benadryl. The red blotches could be a reaction to meds. The benadryl works on the histamine which is part of the allergic response causing the splotches. Use the lowest dosage first though because benadryl has a tendency to cause drowsiness.

You should consult your doctor and a dermatologist before trying to make ANY adjustment to your drug regiment
