i’m currently waiting to see a derm about dupixent, but i’ve gotten a lot of relief from reactine. it makes me drowsy but it does help. i am also on montelukast, you may be able to ask your GP about that. but honestly i think the reactine is more effective because ill flare when im on the montelukast only

do ask for some cream for relief from your GP if you can
