Guest guest Posted December 30, 2004 Report Share Posted December 30, 2004 Dear Sandy(ee), Thanks for the tip on SARNA lotion. I'd never heard of it. I did a search and found it: http://www.drugstore.com/products/prod.asp?pid=17137 & catid=10401 & aid=337011 & apar\ am=sarna_anti_itch_lotion it is made of camphor and menthol. That sounded kind of familiar, so I grabbed the old bottle of Vicks Vaporub and looked. Yes. those are the active ingredients: Camphor 4.7%, Menthol 2.6% and Eucalyptus oil 1.2% Sounds like Vicks Vaporub is a stronger version of SARNA. Rub that on the lumps and it might help you breathe better too :-) Love, > > Hey guys... > I found a cream/lotion while I was in the clinical trial at NIH which > helps with the itching and does not contain cortisone since I wasn't > allowed to use anything that contained steroids.
