Hi,
It is very common to have aggravation of eczema during pregnancy.
I would recommend you to take tablet Chlorpheniramine Maleate once daily at bedtime and apply a moisturizing lotion on the entire body 3-4 times in a day. Don’t worry it won’t affect your baby.
Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
