What do you mean? There is no antidepressant called Dextron and as far as I know skin itching is a fairly common side effect of taking many anti-depressants. You may have mis-spelled the medication. Prefix DEX tells me it is probably a cortisteroid of some sort, commonly used for skin conditions such as itching. Ask your pharmacist for a printout of your medication that should answer all your questions.
