Hi and thanks for the question,
I suggest you might to revisit your GP for a proper clinical evaluation. Some of the anti allergic drugs at times could cause itches in some other people. Also, he shall try to know whether is another cause of the itches such as parasitic infections.
It could also be interesting to know if you are taking the medication properly, hoping you really do.
Thin you take an appointment with your GP for reevaluation.
thanks and best regards,
Luchuo, MD.
