@cniebler38 Good question! I looked up quercetin on WebMD and found this information. It is not recommended for use in kidney patients [see under precaution tab, but entire article is worth reading]: https://www.webmd.com/vitamins/ai/ingredientmono-294/quercetin

Histamine intolerance can be an ordeal to work with. Have you figured out what is causing the itching? Environmental, or another medication, perhaps?

Thank you for taking time to look at quercetin. I read it could further damage kidneys at higher dosages which is why I am trying one half dose.

Yes problem with histamine is an ordeal although of the possible related symptoms I have only two major at this time: severe full face breakout controlled by histamine diet and intense whole body itching primarily at night as histamine highest at that time for which quercetin is ranked highest. I do take Zyrtec and claratin daily recommended by an allergist. Of the 3 dermatologists. One allergist, one gastro, and my PCP I have seen none of them have dealt with the 1% of the population who experience histamine intolerance. I will continue to search on line and perhaps find a study on it. Have a Histamine Intolerance Explained book that covers available supplements and a list of most foods high in histamine. Avoiding a wide range of specific foods does control facial breakout which is damaging to the skin and possibly eyes as well as painful.
