Ciprodac 500 (ciprofloxacin) is an antibiotic meant for bacterial infections, so it will not cure a fungal infection. Avil 25 (pheniramine) is an antihistamine that can help soothe itching, but it does not target fungus. The success of your three-day IV therapy depends on whether the medication given was an antifungal. Fungal infections typically require specific antifungal treatments to heal completely. I gently recommend discussing this with your doctor to confirm your diagnosis and ensure you are prescribed the correct antifungal medication for a safe and effective recovery.

Dealing with severe rashes, shivers, and extreme exhaustion for four months is incredibly draining. Medications like Avil (pheniramine) and Dexona (dexamethasone) provide quick relief but are not safe for long-term use. The steroids in Dexona are likely causing your weakness and dizziness. A safer, long-term approach requires finding the root cause. Please consult a dermatologist or immunologist. They can help you safely taper off Dexona and transition to safer daily options, such as generic second-generation antihistamines or targeted non-steroidal treatments. You do not have to suffer through these side effects; there are better, gentler ways to manage this.

Schamberg disease can cause reddish or brown patches on the legs and may sometimes lead to itching. Keep the skin moisturised and avoid very hot water or harsh soaps that can irritate the skin. A doctor may suggest medicine or a soothing cream to help reduce the itching. Consult a doctor if the itching continues or the patches spread further.

Both Avil (pheniramine) and Atarax (hydroxyzine) can pass into breast milk and may make your baby sleepy or irritable. While occasional low doses might be used under medical supervision, they are generally not the preferred choices during breastfeeding. Please consult your doctor or pediatrician before taking either medication so they can safely evaluate your rash and recommend the most suitable, breastfeeding-friendly option for you and your baby.

Given that the severe itching is on your hands and worsens significantly at night, one strong possibility to consider is scabies, a very common and highly treatable skin condition. Other possibilities include dyshidrotic eczema or contact dermatitis. Because over-the-counter options haven't helped, I highly recommend seeing a healthcare provider for a proper diagnosis. If it is scabies, they can prescribe a generic permethrin cream. If it is eczema, a topical corticosteroid may be recommended.

Your symptoms are very classic for scabies, which is why standard antihistamines and antiseptics haven't provided relief. Please reassure yourself that this is common and highly treatable. The most effective treatments are prescription-strength medications, specifically a topical cream called permethrin, applied from the neck down overnight, or an oral prescription called ivermectin. Because scabies spreads easily, household contacts should be treated at the same time, and bedding should be washed in hot water. Please consult a healthcare provider to get the right prescription so you can finally get some comfortable sleep.
