I've been using Fexo 180 for a couple of days now, but I'm still having really itchy and irritated skin. It's kind of frustrating, and honestly, I just want the itchiness to stop. I'm a 25-year-old female. Any advice on what I can do about this?

Persistent skin irritation and itching despite taking Fexo 180 may indicate that the medication is not effectively controlling your symptoms. You can try switching to another antihistamine such as Cetirizine 10mg once daily or Loratadine 10mg once daily. Additionally, you can apply a soothing lotion like Calamine lotion to the affected areas to help relieve the itching. If the symptoms continue, it is advisable to consult your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.
