Abstract
A treatment for pruritus is described that is based upon amylase. The amylases (α-, β-, γ-amylase) are noted for the cleavage of the α-glycosidic bonds of polysaccharides, yielding lower molecular weight carbohydrate/sugar fragments. It has now been found that α-amylase is effective in the reduction of pruritus (itching) of affected tissue.
