Severe itching

Posted by thedyl @thedyl, Jan 1 10:34am

Has anybody experienced severe itching from OZEMPIC? I stopped taking OZEMPIC a month ago after using it for 6 months. I still have severe itching, and my physician told me that OZEMPIC can stay in my system for a month. I use ZYTREC to help with the itching, but so far, it has had minimal results. I would appreciate any help. Thank you.

Hello,
CeraVe make a produce, itch relief moisturizer cream. It's pretty good. You can buy the tub on Amazon.
Also, you may ask your doctor to prescribe "Triamcinolone Acetonide Cream USP 0.1 percent"
One of these should help your itching.
Best regards

I like the suggestion of the CeraVe and triamcinolone cream Rx.
Minimize hot water bathing and use Dove soap. Keep a portable humidifier
in your bedroom as this is the time of year for winter itch as well.
Review possibility of other medications on your list that may cause allergies.
Statins can dry our skin as well.

I have tried both. No help. I also was prescribed ZYRTEC. No help. Also SARNA cream, which gave me a short relief period of about one hour. My guess is that I must wait a month for relief.
