What should I do if the medications prescribed for my month-long body itching and suspected mite bites?specifically Vermact 12, Atarax 25, and KLmite cream?are not working?
The medications you were prescribed?Vermact 12 (ivermectin), Atarax 25 (hydroxyzine), and KLmite cream (permethrin)?are standard treatments, but itching can sometimes persist for a few weeks even after the mites are gone. This is often a normal reaction called 'post-scabetic itch.' However, it could also be due to re-infection. Please ensure all clothes and bedding are washed in hot water to prevent this. I highly recommend contacting your doctor again. They can confirm if the mites are gone and prescribe targeted treatment or soothing creams to help you finally get some relief.
