prickly heat
« on: June 02, 2009, 01:00:08 AM »
Someone, I think it may have been Don, was asking about medication for sun sensitivity or prickly heat. If anyone was thinking about getting the tablets that i found really helped me with this they need to be got on prescription and are called Telfast 180mg. You need to start taking them for at least a week before you go. Just thought I'd mention this as I know lots of people are starting to go now.... lucky for some!

Lynn - Don is so tight he squeaks when he walks!!
Telfast is correct - I use them on my now free prescriptions!!!
Mainly for a touch of hayfever -but the side effects are - no prickly heat - deters mossies from biting you!!

My friend Joanne suffers from prickly heat and was told Piz Buin make one that helps relieve prickly heat. I think it is the one for sensitive skin.

Bit worried about a lotion "THat helps give prickly heat." I tend to get enough of it without chemicals to enhance it!   Do love you JULES! xx
