Some OTC antihistamines (diphenhydramine, loratidine, chlorpheniramine, etc.) may provide relief. Prescription drugs, such as Atopica or Apoquel, may be more effective. These last two would need to be dispensed by your veterinarian. Never medicate your pet without the advice of your vet.

I am sorry to hear about your dog! I would recommend the Duoxo Calm line of products, https://www.douxo.com/us/douxo-solutions/douxo-calm , a fatty acid supplement such as Welactin, and I would talk to your vet about an over the counter antihistamine such as Benadryl or Zyrtec https://www.petcoach.co/search/?query=can%20i%20give%20benadryl https://www.petcoach.co/canigive/dog/zyrtec/.

Hello. Honestly, I recommend either Nordic Naturals or Bayer Free Form Snip Tips. Both of these are highly recommended by veterinary dermatologists, too. You will need to call other veterinarians to see who carries Cytopoint. It is an excellent product & most of my clients love the convenience of only needing a simple injection once ever 6-8 weeks to control their pet's allergies. Thanks for using Boop by Petco.

If he has pustules then he may need to be on an antibiotic again to treat an infection. Atopica can cause side effects in some dogs and if you dog is experiencing negative side effects then you could talk to your vet about switching to a new allergy medication called Apoquel. I have used it on may dogs and it seems to work very well with minimal side effects.

If the itching has an allergic component, Atoica may help. You should have Titus examined by your veterinarian to diagnose the underlying cause. It could be parasites (mites or fleas). Even one flea bite n a sensitive dog can cause a severe reaction. It may also be dry skin, infection (bacterial or fungal), food sensitivities or an endocrine imbalance. Discuss allergy testing, hydrolyzed diets and food elimination trials with your vet. A different antihistamine may be more effective. In the meantime, place an e-collar on Titus to prevent excessive licking or chewing. A tee shirt or onesie may prevent scratching.
