Brief Answer:
Methylcobalamine

Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for the query.
Sometimes persistent itching is felt due to hyper sensitivity of nerves.
I usually prescribe tablet methylcobalamine in such cases and have seen excellent response with that.
You too can try this for a month.
Also take an antihistamine tablet for a week.
This will help in immediate control of itch.
Let me know if you have any other doubts.
Thank you
