Calagel should not be used in conjunction with any other products containing diphenhydramine so as not to exceed a daily recommended dosage. Please contact your physician.
I work in a hot and humid environment in an already hot and humid Georgia. I often get prikly heat rash during the summer months, so bad I can hardly sleep. I have tried all kinds of different products to provide some relief from the pain and itching. My wife picked up a bottle of Calagel for me to try out, and I was amazed at how much better my rash felt seconds after applying. This is a great product.

What an amazing product is Calagel! I have been tormented with itching/burning on my lower legs all winter. I have tried different soaps, aloe, various lotions, Cortisone 10, and each has given short-term but not completely effective relief. So I searched the shelves at my local Rite Aid pharmacy last night and found Calagel. Last night was the first night I have had an itch-less night in many weeks. What a blessing it is. Kudos for putting this wonderful product on the market.

Mid winter clearing of a new property, ambushed after a few days with rash that needed attention. Recognized its appearance and went for the trusted remedy. Tecnu, followed by Jewel weed soap and cool down with Calagel. Good and dependable system tks

Relief, blessed relief! I have known about the Tec Laboratories products for a while and have used Tecnu quite often to both prevent and minimize the effects of the poison ivy I inadvertently come across while hiking. I recently had forgotten to apply a good coat of insect repellent while out hiking and came home with the worst case of chigger bites I had ever had. Seeking relief from the maddening itch, I saw your Calagel product in the itch relief section of the pharmacy. I knew that if anyone could make a product that would relieve the symptoms of chigger bites, Tec Labs would do it best.
Though not specifically for chigger bites, the Calagel started to work almost instantly in relieving the itching that those nasty critters had cursed me with. I was finally able to get a full night's sleep without waking myself up by scratching the bites. Thanks again for making a product that is not only better than the competition but is often less expensive as well. My medicine cabinet will always have your products in it.

I would just like to take a minute to tell you that I just tried your CalaGel today and it is wonderful!!!! I am 52 years old and have been tormented all my life with poison oak/ivy....If I could tell the difference, I probably would not be getting in it so much... My latest bout with this annoying little plant came from my pet Border Collie, Jake....I tried to tell him to stay out of the poison oak growing on the hill, but you know how dogs are????? Anyway, a girl I work with told me about your product so I purchased a bottle, not thinking it would really work...W O W!...was I wrong...In the past, I have had shots, steroid packs, and a long line of messy creams and nothing worked as well as CalaGel... Thanks again!
