Itching throughout the body
My wife aged 43 has been suffering from itching throughout her body for the last six months. She has to take cetrizine 10 mg tablet daily to get relief from her itching.if she takes the tablet daily then there is no itching but if she miss the tablet then the itching starts and when she scrub the skin with her nail then red, scaly patches develop there.It's a daily problem.As we know that it is not good to take the tablet daily but there is no other option. Actually what is the problems?
