Based on my research, this is a cream or ointment sold in mexico used to treat infections of the skin and burns. It contains sulfur. It was once used fairly commonly, until other less toxic options were found. The toxicity of it is why it is no longer available in the U.S.
However to further answer your question, I think it really depends on whether or not the Pruritus (Itching) is due to an infection and not just an allergic reaction to something else. If you can determine that it is in fact an infection, then yes, this medication may be used for such treatment.
You can learn more about this drug on the page for Sulfathiazole Details
I hope this helps!
