Zyrtec withdrawal itching

Common Questions and Answers about Zyrtec withdrawal itching

zyrtec

Avatar f tn I have to take 2 every 4-6 hours to keep the itching at bay, but I have no other allergy symptoms so I know the itching comes from the Zyrtec withdrawal. I will try taking the Benedryl for a few days when I go to bed to see if I can actually sleep longer than 4 hours at a time. Yes! Night time is far worse in the itching category. During the day I can take 1 Triease gel tab every 4-6 hours and subside the itch just enough (although the itch never completely goes away).
Avatar f tn Has anyone experienced severe itching problems when they stop taking Zyrtec?

Avatar f tn started getting hives and an increase in my asthma symptoms in sept 2010, no explanation for this that i am aware of, tried benadryl seemed to make it worse, lortadine didnt help either, the itching, burning, stinging was unbearable. started taking zyrtec, seemed to help a little but starts up again so i also started taking zantac along with the zyrtec. i am still getting some hives and itching but now for about the past 3-4 wks now i'm also getting nausea, please help!
Avatar f tn For the last 4 years I've had an on-going problem that is getting worse. It started with my lower legs. When I would shave and the hair would start growing back my legs itched terribly. I saw a dermatologist and decided to have laser hair removal to solve the problem. It helped a little but now it has spread. periodically I get hives(?) on different parts of my body. Now it is every day.
Avatar f tn I am 4 weeks postpartum & have been having itching and rashes since delivery. I have always had occassional issues w/ itching and rashes my whole life. Very sensitive skin. Ocassional rashes when Ive used new bath products, etc. But since I delivered my 2nd child I have itching and rashes all over my body.
714275 tn?1295226265 I never had an itching like this before. It was as if the Zyrtec isolated the allergen and made it dormant within my body, until the medicine was out of my system. The first location was my tailbone area. I scratched until the skin was off. It will flare up in the same location for days, then it would move around. My hands and feet are the current locations. I usually take a Zyrtec and then I'm good for a few days.
Avatar m tn Give over the counter antihistaminics like Claritin or zyrtec to your husband.Nighttime itching can be controlled by benadryl.Also apply calamine lotion or a mild steroid cream on the itchy areas.If the symptoms persist then oral steroids may be needed. If the symptoms persist, then you can consult an immunologist. He may start with immunosuppressive drugs.
Avatar f tn I already had sarna anti itch lotion so I used it after the shower today and have been comfortable mostly all day. He said benadryl, claritin or zyrtec could also help.
Avatar n tn Any remedies that help with the constant itching. My skin is getting dryer and dryer. I get it that itching doesnt help And very hot showers doesnt either. I put lotion on right after I get out. Help...?
Avatar n tn I get rashes on my body that it kind of warm feeling, it cannot stop itching. it goes away and then just comes out somewhere else? It is driving me crazy! what could it be?
Avatar m tn For the last few months I have been breaking out in hives and itching, swelling (severe) espically when doing work or getting hot, possibly cold i am unsure, what might be causing this and what should I do or take. I have been taking benadrly but it keeps coming back.
Avatar n tn So far it is the only thing that even comes close to helping itching sore mouth, throat, nose or ears. The others like zyrtec seem to only help me with allergies that are digested first.
Avatar n tn What I should use to get relief from belly itching. Also feeling heat around belly button. Is there any remedy?
478342 tn?1241369352 t step into warm buildings without myself itching because of coming outside from the cold. The Zyrtec is not working and I need a solution to my problem because I can't even hold a job during the winter because of the itching problem. I haven't worked all winter and now its spring and the itching still isn't gone. I am 6'1" 185 pound black male. If someone has any kind of solutions that would be helpful to me I would be most grateful.

1102308 tn?1257806648 been on methimazole for three weeks and have had uncontrollable itching on my elbows and shins...sometimes hives develop...is there anything i can do to relieve this>? it is horrible at night and i havent been sleeping very much and the itching isnt helping...any suggestions>? is it just the methimazole or the graves or both? please help!!!
Avatar f tn As long as your dr gave the go ahead then I say take the Benadryl. I broke out in full body hives around 24 weeks and took Benadryl (just a half dose so I didn't get as much of that sleepy effect) and my dr told me Zyrtec was fine to take too since its a full 24 hours of relief. I'd say call ur dr and ask about the Zyrtec or even Claritin and if they give the go ahead, take that for during the day and the Benadryl to help sleep at night until it subsides.
Avatar n tn m taking Zyrtec daily now because the itching is so severe. The Zyrtec kills the itching for 24 hours. I went to the doctor who said it was tinea versicolor - which I have had since I was a teenager - and I told her that tinea versicolor didn't itch. She, however, says it can. Still, I'm itching everywhere the tinea versicolor is NOT (i.e. ankles, legs, butt, neck, stomach, etc.). She is putting me on Ketoconazole 200mg for 5 days and Ketoconazole shampoo to use on my entire body.

Avatar n tn Twice in the past 24 hours, about 12 hours apart, I have experienced extreme itching on my torso, with some extensions on my arms and legs. After scratching madly, I noticed welts of various sizes appearing and the whole area becoming red. Bathing in the Aveeno Oatmeal Colloidal mixture seemed to soothe the itching, and gradually, over a period of 45 minutes to an hour, the redness and welts went away.
