    1. Thank you for reaching out. Talk with your doctor about getting a medication lotion to help with the itching.
      For a more natural way, I personally have found that coconut oil has been the best for me. I get it at my local grocery store. You find it in the baking isle- I get the refined. I also, make sure that I am well covered in this or a non-perfume lotion after every shower/bath. I do not all my skin to become dry. Several applications throughout your day may be required.
      I am no physician, only a liver patient like yourselves. I share based on personal experience. Talk with your doctor and see if this does not give any relief and see what they can do to help medication wise. Itching is no fun. I hope you find some relief.
      My best
