Hi there David.

I read your history & description of your itch & note that 15 years is indeed a long time to have suffered from an itch sans getting to the root of things.

For the moment as tablets are what yu are keen on & possibly be of more benefit for you, please take fexofenadine molecule 180 mg once/day & this should help you get rid of the itch.

Moreover, it is non-sedative & relatively safe & am sure your local pharmacist should be able to supply this sans prescription.

Here's wishing you a safe itch free life!

Hello.Seems like you've been having hives.Cause of the allergy needs to be ascertained.There are good anti allergy pills(called antihistamines) available to control the hives.
