There used to be a product, perhaps named "Ivy Dry" which was a tincture of
the leaf.  You took one small vial today, one tomorrow, and one in 30 days.
Not script at the time.  It gave you a season of immunity.  Although I
was-probably still am---very sensitive to the stuff, I could roll in it
after taking the course of tincture.  Removing clothing and bathing
thoroughly after exposure helps too. If you get it within a couple of hours,
there is usually no effect.
