My three step rash avoidance technique: a. Wash with Technu b. rinse with rubbing alcohol c. (very important) start taking oral Benadryl as soon as I know I've been exposed. Because it makes me drowsy, I may only take it at night, but if I take the Benadryl BEFORE breaking out in the rash, I have not had a reaction after known exposure.
