Hi,
Your dermatologist has perfectly advised you the medications. There is no need of extra medications. If at all there is itching or any irritation then you can additionally take loratadine tablets by mouth. If itching is less then can take for one time and if it is more then can take for 2-3 times. Do not pinch, pop or scratch the area.
