A quick question about antihistamines

[Merny5]

I started methadone 3 months ago ( previously took oxycodone) For the last 3 weeks I have had extreme itching. I suspect it is the methadone. My question is are there any antihistamines that are safe to use for those of us with RLS?

Hi. It is definitely the methadone as that is a known side effect. When I was on it, I was scratching like crazy and it would often wake me. I'm sure someone on here knows of a solution for you....good luck!

Allegra, zyrtec and claritin are all safe.
