I hate Allergies.. My Allergies are killing me the last couple days.. I take Zyrtec at night it's should last 24 hours but it does not feel like it's working.. What really helps is to turn the A/C on but it's not near hot enough outside to do that.. Anyone have any ideas?

Agreed. \r \r I take Claritin Allergy every day, Non-Drowsy of course. But if I already have an allergic attack I need to take an effervescent medicine to get rid of it.

My wife is having a crazy time with her allergies lately. I can't think of anything to tell you except pray for rain. \r \r That should help push all that crap in the air onto the ground....\r \r

My usual stepwise regimen for patients:\r \r 1.) OTC allergy medication - claritin or zyrtec, increasing to claritin-D; there are others that are prescription-only - allegra, xyzal.\r \r 2.) Nasal steroids, prescription-only - flonase (now generic), nasonex, nasacort, et al.\r \r 3.) Leukotriene inhibitor - Singulair (Rx only)\r \r 4.) Allergy testing with the consideration of allergy shots.

I take the new tylenol and they work pretty good...even though my allergies aren't that bad. \r \r MJ

I went to my doctor about a very nasty allergy related cough and she suggested a Neti pot. It's a nasel irrigator. Basically this is a small tea-kettle where you fill with lukewarm water, put the spout in one nostril, turn your head, raise the end of the pot and the water goes in the nostril, thru your sinuses and out the other nostril. \r I've noticed a HUGE change in my allergies since I started using this twice a day. Any drug store should have it.....
