Last spring I found great relief after being prescribed Fluticasone Propionate nasal spray (generic for Flonase). Rarely need pills now. - bc/nc May 15, 06:55
It's prescription, but Astelin is the bomb -- nm - oblique May 15, 06:38
Have you tried Zyrtec, Allegra or Claritin? All 3 are non-drowsy. I know that Benedryl works better than anything else, but it'll knock your ass out. - Trish May 15, 06:09 5
- I find I have to alternate every year. What works one year won't work the next so I end up with 4 or 5 packs of pills - Beaker May 15, 06:37
- I also swear by Zyrtec, but when my symptoms get bad, nothing works like Benadryl. -- nm - TFox May 15, 06:11 3
  - I wish Zyrtec worked for me. Sadly, nothing makes a dent except for that sweet, sweet Beny. nm - ralph wiggum May 15, 06:54 1
    - Benadryl has never really thrown me for a loop like that, but I'm also a more sizeable human than most of you ladies. -- nm - TFox May 15, 06:56
  - Tell me about it. I just block out 3-4 hours to sleep before I take one. :) -- nm - Khloe May 15, 06:34
Double down on Vitamin C. It really helps -- nm - flavorize May 15, 04:50 1
- w/allergies -- nm - flavorize May 15, 04:52
