What do you do for Neuropathy itch?

Hello Chris and all who have issues and pain with neuropathic itching.
Back in August I started using antihistamine's to help my itch and it was amazingly helpful. No itching. I stopped taking the Claritin generic last month; about six weeks ago actually. And in the last week the itch is back. I'll go back on the antihistamine and see if it helps. I only have this one area on my elbow that started up again. I was icing it last night and this morning, which is unusual for it to rear its head in the a.m. But it was BAD last night. Okay, thank you. (BTW the Dermeleve stopped helping me early on...bummer)

Hi there,
Thanks for the update. I know the Dermeleve doesn't last more than a few hours. Yet when I was desperate, I was glad I kept a tube in my purse.

I do have some good news. The Dupixent injections have completely taken care of the itch from wherever it initiates. I still know it is from inside. That doesn't mean I can't get surface issues but for now, I am feeling sane again.

Happy New Year. Please be itch-free.
Chris
