## Questions & Answers

**Q: Has anyone used this on mosquito bites?  Is it effective?**
A: I use it all the time on mosquito bites.  Stops the itch.  Will need to be reapplied periodically.  Very cooling.

**Q: This is listed as extra strength, but the picture shows regular strength.  Which is it?**
A: That is a great question, there is no way to know for sure other than ordering and returning if incorrect. I did find the extra strength pictured and it also said extra strength in the description. The description also said "Three tubes of 1-ounce each of Benadryl Extra-Strength Anti-Itch Stopping Cream" for almost the same price as the page you questioned but for an extra tube. https://www.amazon.com/Benadryl-Strength-Topical-Anti-Itch-Diphenhydramine/dp/B09B6KS9YM/ref=sr_1_4?crid=2DHXBR8PATSBX&keywords=benadryl%2Bcream%2Bextra%2Bstrength&qid=1641336994&s=hpc&sprefix=benadryl%2Bcream%2Bextra%2Bstrength%2Chpc%2C92&sr=1-4&th=1
You might have a look there and see if that is a better page to order the Benadryl Cream.

**Q: Does this product contain steroid?**
A: No, it contains Diphenhydramine hydrochloride 1% (Topical analgesic) and Zinc acetate 0.1% (Skin protectant) as active ingredients.

**Q: Does this contain parabens? Does it work well on hives?**
A: l only used the medicine for itching my skin, l am not sure on hives...
