I am experiencing itching all over my body, mostly at night. What medicine should I take for this?

Asked by Female, 35 · 6 days ago

Itching that worsens at night can be caused by dry skin, allergies, or conditions like scabies. For temporary relief, you can take an over-the-counter antihistamine like Cetirizine (10 mg) once daily, or a sedating antihistamine like Diphenhydramine (25 mg) at bedtime if the itching keeps you awake. Applying calamine lotion or a fragrance-free moisturizer can also soothe your skin. However, because the itching is widespread and nocturnal, it is crucial to consult a doctor for a proper diagnosis and targeted treatment, rather than self-medicating long-term.
