Treatment for Itching and Welts

by Steph

Hi. I see a lot of "how do i stop itching" posts.

My dermatologist recommended Loratadine (basically the antihistamine part of allergy medicine). You can get it over the counter - generic or Claritin -- and it works great!

I welt up when I get stressed and when I take the pill it stops within 5 minutes, tops. In addition, I don't need to take it every day.

Hopefully, this treatment works for others too.
