HI
Well come to HCM
Most of he itching symptom is because of he allergic condition and this may be due to the hypersensitivity and this is bit difficult to know the cause, but better to treat the condition and the best medicine would be Tab Levocetrizine 10 mg three times in day, better not to stop the cardiac medicine because the allergic condition may not be due to this, hope this helps.
