@bjbednarz, @lorirenee, If you want an OTC...one of the recommended ones is Sarna Sensitive. This is a relatively new version of Sarna with the addition of Pramoxine Hydrochloride which my dermatologist thought might work better. Try it.........

The Rx topical is Triamcinolone Acetonide Cream. This one works best for me so far. I rub it on my arms & back of hands. Then I put the ski sleeves over them so I don't unknowingly scratch during the night. You can get the sleeves at Scheel's or Dick's Sporting Goods. This is my best shot for making it through the night and into the day. A word of warning, however.....this medication can thin your skin.

There is also an essential oil called Adaptive. It works when you are in a hurry. Let it dry and make sure you have no open areas as in those you have scratched......or it will burn. (Makes me wonder why.) This is very light and best for walking out to get the mail or in the morning before Yoga.

I think when we give out these names of things we have tried, you must take it lightly. None of these are curing the itch from within. The nighttime Rx that seems to help me is Doxepine.....this is not a topical, it is a capsule that you take a bedtime. It has helped. There are as needed OTC capsules like Benedryl. The neuropathic itch right now is being studied and better medications are being tested. Until then, it seems best to keep trying to develop a routine that works for different situations.

@lorirenee1, is there anything else you would add? And that is another thing. There is nothing in a jar or tube that is going to help you more than @lorirenee and others who have been living with this anguish producing affliction. Stay on Connect.....participate and share. We all watch out for each other.

May you both be free of suffering and the causes of suffering.
Chris
