Therapeutic Treatment
H1 Anti-histamines and other “anti-allergy” medicines
• Efficacy not proven clinically
- on eczema itself,
- nor to prevent asthma
- Nor against pruritus :
in fact, physiopathologically speaking, the receptors in question are
not those involved in allergy but rather those that cause pain.
This is why anti-histamines are ineffective
• Their sedative effect can potentially be useful
