Detailed Answer:
Hi

Thanks for the query

I don't think this itching to be a side effect of medicine.
I won't get overly worried as it is localised and not associated with any rash.
In your case I would suggest you to continue the antiallergic cetrizine.As itching is mainly during night time I think adding anxiolytic will help. I would suggest you to consult a physician for evaluation and to discuss about the need of medications.

I hope this helps.
I shall be glad to help further if you need any.
Wishing for your good health.
Regards
