Antihistamine and urticaria help needed

Hi all, I've have chronic urticaria and have tried several antihistamines with no luck. I've double dosed them all with GP advice. I'm about to start yet another 3 day course of steroids but this gives me relief for 4/5 days only then its back like a bad smell. My GP has said Cetirizine 10mg can be taken 4 times a day.
Does anyone else take this amount? I'm wondering how the best way to take it is. 20mg morning then 20mg at night or spread 40mg over the course of a day?
Thank you so much in advance
Lou 😀

Those on four cetirizine a day, if you forgot your morning dose of two, did you ever take four at the same time in the evening? 😳
