Good afternoon @newbe. Is this your first post? I didn't see any other comments on your profile. I was just browsing down the page and saw your message..." my wife is having the same problem." The person you were trying to reach last posted in August and may not be as active on this discussion.

My name is Chris and I am a mentor for connect. One of my own issues has been "neuropathic itch." After two years of significant pain and discomfort, I just recently found the solution. What a relief!

Would you be able to explain a little bit about your wife's symptoms and treatments? You can go ahead and direct it to @artscaping at this support group.....Skin Health. If you could write a bit about your wife's situation in the Profile....that would also be helpful to others. The profile is in the box at the top right.

May you have happiness and the causes of happiness.

Beta Alanine kills the itch for me and hundreds of other people who have reported to the Aquagenic Pruritus Support Group fb page…it is common that this itch is associated with another medical Condition, there are many possible like a Mast Cell Disorder or some cancers…so make sure an full medical work up is done.
As for beta alanine, I buy the NOW brand on Amazon and take 750 mg every four hours as needed for itch and 1500 mg before showering. Showering works best late in the day for some reason…
A pair of Stanford Dermatologist wrote a paper on the subject two years ago.
