Good evening @irajoyce. Boy......you have been bothered by the "itch" for quite some time. What are you using now? Let me see if I can help you with some contact information. And the second question......do you currently see a dermatologist for the itching? I think you will need to have a dermatologist present your case to the Dupixent folks. It did take some time. We had to try other treatments, like heavy-duty ointments. Some were for the face, others for the arms. Some were very strong with limited use instructions. I have tried them all. When it got really bad, I had to have testosterone.

My dermatologist presented my case to the Dupixent folks. After submitting the proof, they accepted me as a patient. In fact, I just gave myself an injection this evening. You self-inject every two weeks in alternating thighs. There is no pain or discomfort.

Here is the contact information. http://www.dupixent.com. Phone: 844 387-4936. You cam speak with medical professionals and they are very helpful. This is Step 1. Step 2 is to fund the purchase. Dupixent is prepared in a Speciality pharmacy in Maryland. It must be packed in ice and kept refrigerated until you are ready to inject. There are two pens in every box.

I have not had any irritation at the injection area and no side effects.

The other issue that may arise is the Co-pay. Are you on Medicare? For some reason, Dupixent is not on the Medicare formulary so you have to request an exception. There is a form to complete and submit. My daughter helped with all of this for me because she has spent 30 years helping dental patients with their insurance issues.

You may also have to prove that Social Security will reject classifying you as a low-income candidate. If they don't then you will receive assistance. If they do, then the Dupixent company will review your request for what is called Dupixent My Way.

The health folks at Dupixent also have Zoom meetings to discuss and attempt to resolve any issues. I know this probably sounds like a lot of work, and it is. However, it is worth the effort.

Please check in with me if you decide to pursue this product. I will always help as much as I can.

May you be safe, protected, and free from inner and outer harm.
Chris
