I used mederma for a scar after surgery on my neck. I apply it in the morning after I shower and it itches. It NEVER stops itching all day long. I stopped using it because of the itch and switched to a skin cream - Curel Ultra Healing.

I use it for frequent widespread hydro excema and have found it very effective for reducing the swelling and the itch. Terrasil is the brand containing the allantoin.
