Benadryl Extra Strength Itch Stopping

Benadryl Extra Strength Itch Stopping is a medication used to temporarily relieve pain and itching from insect bites, minor burns, sunburn, cuts, scrapes, and rashes caused by poison ivy, poison oak, or poison sumac. It works by blocking certain signals in the body that cause these uncomfortable sensations. You can apply it to the affected area up to 3 to 4 times a day, but be sure not to use it on large areas of your body or with any other products that contain diphenhydramine. A key warning is to avoid using it if you have chickenpox or measles, and if your symptoms last more than 7 days or come back after clearing up, you should stop using it and consult a doctor. If you have children under 2 years old, you should ask a doctor before using this medication.
