Hi,
Thanks for writing to us.
Itching and rashes could be due to urticaria,eczema or scabies. While eczema and urticaria will respond to oral antiallergics and steroids, scabies would require oral ivermectin and topical permethrin.
As you are not having any response with wysolone 20 mg, please revisit your doctor. Your doctor might increase your steroid dose or might add better oral antihistamines.
Hope this helped.
