A highly informative article that may relieve itching for many MPN patients by blocking the H1 and H2 receptors. Check with your doctor or pharmacist. Hope you find this helpful!
I use Cetirizine/Zyrtec to control itching from ET/interferon but wasn't aware of the Zantac combo - I'll bear it in mind if it gets tougher to control - thanks for sharing...
Gladly Andy, it is the combo that gives itching the knock out punch. I have heard other patients get similar relief by just taking 1 of the 2 OTC meds. It also helps some with stomach/GERD issues. Stay tuned, more to come in the follow up article.
