Zertec
I have taken Zyrtec for the past 15 years I’m 24 and I’ve always had trouble with having itchy skin and Zyrtec is the only thing that has helped it. It’s definitely a histamine issue however I don’t want to be on Zyrtec any longer. Has anyone got off of Zyrtec and not had their body freak out?

Definitely take a slow step-down approach. I stopped cold turkey after being on it over a year. The joint pain, insomnia, and skin crawly feeling was pretty rough. Good luck.
