Treatment: The main treatment for PUPPP is to give supportive care and to try to suppress the itching symptoms. There are no ill effects on the fetus, and expectant mothers can be given topical medium or high-potency corticosteroids to help decrease the itching. Occasionally, antihistamines such as diphenhydramine are also needed to control the itching.
