You have not said what is causing the itching but after being attached by sandflies and trying stingose and calamine lotion for 2 weeks the advice that I received from the chemist was to try haemorehoid cream. Worked a treat.

Itchy skin can be from insects......sandflies, mossies, bed bugs or fleas.....deal with them
Can be from allergies to insect bites etc .....chemist if its minor....doctor if its not
Can be from your dermatitis, eczema or psoriasis,....creams, but might not be easy
Can be from liver disease, kidney toxins or some cancers and jaundice......doctor
Dry skin from dry air or dehydration...drink more and use moisturisers.

Found this in Hahndorf. SA
It certainly helps.
I have also found some products from Saarinen Organics in Wyndham NSW helpful.
Does anyone have a solution?
Looking forward to any suggestions.
Regards.

Straight Dettol. Rub it in well.

You can usually find it at Chemist Warehouse.
Ideal for pelican inch at Mallacoota and itching in general.
