Reply:scratch it up with a brillo pad and rub salt into it. the salt will absorb the poison. it hurts like hell, but effective Report It
Reply:there are oatmeal baths that can help. there is also a medicine that you can get from the pharmacy.
Reply:Eurax cream -it makes everything go warm to start off with, especially if the skin is brokem, but the itching completely STOPS!
Reply:There is an oil called urushiol in this plant. It is the substance that you may be having a reaction to. I would recommend seeing your personal physician because he can give you a prescription for a round of steroids that will help you get over the itch and rash more quickly than calamine, or other topical remedies.

Meanwhile the site below has links that will answer almost any question on poison ivy. It is the Poison Ivy, Oak, %26amp; Sumac Information Center.
Reply:I use rubbing alcohol for everythign that itches, but calamine lotion is the best for it.
