Hi there, @rashida. It's been a while since I saw that name. How are you doing? May I ask what you want Sarna to do for you? I got mine from Amazon. There are actually two different kinds. 1. Sarna Sensitive (skin) Anti-itch. 2. Sarna Anti-itch lotion (Original). I think there is also a third version ......Sarna Original Steroid-free.
I have several bottles here that are unopened. Unfortunately, this did not work for me and so my Dermatologist changed my treatment lotion to Dermeleve. It is a "catch as catch can" anti-itch creme. It is not the ultimate......however, it stops the itch within about 15 minutes and you are itch free for about 6 hours. I know everyone is different and this is what worked for me.
I now use Dupixent.....a twice a month injection that totally wipes out the Neuropathic itch. for me. I have not had any "itch" of any kind since the wonderful day in August last year when I gave myself the first injection.
Yes, it is a little discomforting when I inject it into one of my upper legs. However, that goes away is a few minutes.
I hope you get to try it.
May you then be free of suffering from what was even more than painful.......and that is the "itch".
Chris
Sarna is over the counter, Walgreens etc.
