What are the Treatment Options for Toxicology-Related Itching?
Treatment for itching caused by toxicological exposure typically involves removing the offending substance and managing symptoms. Antihistamines are often used to control itching by blocking histamine receptors. In cases of contact dermatitis, topical corticosteroids may be applied to reduce inflammation. In severe cases, systemic corticosteroids or immunosuppressive agents may be necessary.
