Hi..
Thanks for the query..

If you have a poison ivy rash then is probably due to Allergic reaction caused by the poisonous toxin..
It is commonly treated with anti allergics and steroids..

You should continue applying Triamcinolone Acetonide ointment and along with it you can take anti allergics like Benadryl or Levocetrizine for reducing itching and rashes..
You can apply Caladryl or calamine lotion to soothe the skin..
Oatmeal containing products or oatmeal bath can help..
Do cool compresses over the rashes..

Hope this helps..

Regards..
