Karen - Thinking back now, I was told to buy Piriton at the chemists, I also tried Piriteze but didn't like it (felt really sick with it!) - the oncologist prescribed Betnovate Valerate RD Ointment which did help and then eventually I moved on to the E45 Itch Relief ointment from the chemist. Hope that helps.
I am still itching like crazy nothing seems to help me, really had enough, so tomorrow is chemo day going to ask chemo nurses if they know how to stop the itching before I am driven crazy Karen xx
Hi chelle yes but they said tallk to your oncologist, but today I had blood transfusion spoke to nurses there and they contacted a doc who came to see me and prescribed some cream and antihistamines but the chemist got no Antihistamines in stock, going to get them to me when back in stock but got the cream.

I hope this cream works for you. My niece has psoriasis and I see how distressed she gets with itching. She says no matter how sore it is she still has to scratch. Hope you don’t have to wait too long for the antihistamine. Xx
