Cetirizine

Cetirizine (10mg) for itch
It helps quite well for the itch but as a side effect it does make me extremely sleepy. I can only take these tablets if I know I don't have to drive for the next 12 hours. So I also use it as a sleeping pill.

Desloratadine (5mg) for itch
Heat rash as a result of using saunas and steam baths. For a month tried everything and more to get rid of the itch. This drug helped immediately after one day and after two days the rash was gone.

Levocetirizine

Levocetirizine (5mg) for itch
Branded levocetirizine (Sandoz) from the GP for terrible itching all over my body. After I took it, the itch disappeared straight away but in its place I became inexplicably tired. According to the patient information leaflet this can last for a couple of days. Unfortunately it has now been 2 weeks with this terrible exhaustion, my energy dial is well below zero, my legs feel heavy, sore throat...

Levocetirizine

Levocetirizine (5mg) for itch
I have extremely dry skin particularly in the winter. This helps a bit but the side effects seem to be worse than the problem itself. Fatigue, sometimes short of breath, weight gain and I recognise other side effects from the list too. Unfortunately I haven't found an alternative but at least it takes the edge off the itch.
