What do you do for Neuropathy itch?

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

@artscaping I am interested in Sarna to stop my itching. Right now I am just grasping at straws. Picked up Nystatin cream in case the itching and flaking was other tha. Psoriasis since Skyhrizi is doing nothing for it. I also got some Aloe Vera gel to try, and a bottle of Polysporin anti itch lotion. Going to try each one and see what happens.

I am in Canada and will have to check up on Sarna, whether I can get it over the counter here. Some hints over the counter in the States can be by prescription only here.

I have just moved to another city and don’t have a GP. My dermatologist has given me a referral for a dermatologist here, but the appointment is not till May 1.
