Arthritis strength Tylenol is about as strong as I'll go. With my tendencies to be an enthusiast I'm afraid of what I would do with anything stronger.

Drink 2 beers and fap vigorously and the itching will subside. I'm a doctor (of sorts).

The itch is there to remind you, "hey, stay awake. You're high as BALLS! Enjoy. "

In my professional medical opinion.

NEVER tell a medical professional you take Benadryl for the itch. You'll be handed Advil or toradol for compound fractures for the rest of your life.

Yes, especially at night.

You know it's bad when they advertise medicine targeting opiate constipation. But the itch? Hell no...

After surgery you may be too wasted to notice the itch. It was the 5th day on morphine injections every few hours before I noticed.
