Stop The Itchies By tcmom on Dec 10, 2008 - Updated Sep 18, 2011

I was looking for an OTC(over-the-counter) medication to relieve the itchiness that was bothering me this day and came across this product. The price was great for $3.50 (1oz. tube), so I bought 2. Well worth the price, love that extracare card! The product claims to effectively relieve itch from: Eczema, Psoriasis, Poison Ivy, Oak (whatever that is?), Sumac, Insect bites, Detergents and soaps. The itchiness that I experience on occasion when I am stressed, makes me want to claw my skin off, I have it on my left foot , both palms and elbows. The medication I was prescribed by my dermatologist was too greasy and seemed to me to be feeding the Psoriasis, so, this is the reason I bought Aveeno. Funny how something I hated as a child and still do (oatmeal, yuk!) would be so beneficial! I applied the cream to all the affected areas on my body and whoa and behold, itchiness gone. I love this product. The ingredients: pure oat essence to sooth skin irritation and redness, skin soothing natural colloidal oatmeal and the active ingredient is 1% Hydorcortisone. Love it, and certainly will recommend it to all my friends and others who may ask me. Happy, happy am I to finally find relief from itchiness caused by Psoriasis.
