IV Prep makes my son itch - TuDiabetes

tudiabetes.org

We've been pumping about a month, and my son complains that the area around the site itches. I think it's because the IV prep dries him out. I've tried putting lotion or cortisone around it, which relives the itching but also releases the adhesive on the site. Any suggestions? The tape around the site doesn't leave a rash or anything, so I don't think that's what's bothering him. We use the Animas Insets.
