Welcome to Healthcare Magic
You must not take Evion for a long time as it is a fat soluble vitamin and can cause toxicity in large doses. You need to change your diet. Eat food rich in Vitamin A as well like Carrots, Watermelon, Bananas. Protein and calcium diet to improve strength like eggs, chicken, lean meat, cereals, pulses. Drink plenty of water a day as water removes all toxins that accumulates. Exercise daily by brisk walking for 40 minutes a day as this way you will get maximum blood circulation through body and skin and it works wonders. You can apply olive oil to skin as well for moisture.

Short courses of Cap Evion for about 2 to 3 months are good for the skin and hair. But in addition, you should take proper diet and do regular exercise, wich will boost circulation.Apply coconut oil or petroleum jelly liberally twice a day.If itching persists, it might be due to certain food allergy. Keep a watch for the same, or get you allergy profile done.
Good luck
