Yes, I still use it. When I’ve stopped taking it the itching gets worse, so I continue to take it. I wonder if I’ll ever be able to stop itching. Plus, at night, My itch is extreme and all over. Legs, feet, arms, everywhere!

@skolotilin I'm so sorry you're going through this 😔 I remember this too well. I went through this for 2 years before my transplant. I thought it would never end. Every night...no sleep, scratching until I bled. Everywhere on my body including my eyebrows, scalp, eyelids, fingers, palms, soles of my feet, toes, scalp and every other inch. I tried everything. The meds the doctors gave me never helped nor did baths, creams, antihistimines, special sheets. It did finally end after my transplant but now 1 1/2 years later its started up again but modertately. It will get better you just have to hang in there. Easy to say I know, but it doesn't last forever. I'm sorry I can't be of more help but I can empathize and share in what you're going through.
