I have very itchy skin and a rash appears after scratching. my doctor prescribed 1% steroid cream but it has no affect on the itchiness at all.

PRURITUS/ALLERGY: PRURITUS can be difficult to evaluate. You must rule out allergens in home and work environment Remember " ALLERGIES DEVELOP OVER TIME AND EXPOSURE" you must keep a diary to assist you, while you are documenting potential triggers, you should be on a H1 blocker Zyrtec 10mg/ H2 blocker Zantac 300mg/ leukotrine inhibitor Singulair (montelukast) 10mg/ELOCON.After labs and allergy testing serum may be needed
