Allergy meds
« on: August 23, 2011, 06:04:49 PM »
Anybody in here have hayweed/ spring allergies? Just the kind of thing where your nose is running, but stuffed up at the same time, eyes are watery, etc. I've tried Reactine, Claritin, and a noname brand of allergy suppressant sort of stuff, but none of them work. At all. If you have the same kind of allergy stuff, what meds do you use that WORK?

And in case anyone asks... Yes, I've eaten 541,798,051 freezies and had stupid amounts of water.

I have tried all of the prescription meds and most of the over counter stuff. I have the most luck with Dayquil allergy/sinus.  I get the bugged out look for awhile and feel like someone slipped me the happy pills but it works best in my experience.

Find a good non-drowsy Antihistamine.

Just have to check the "disable the stuffed-up runny nose" option. :neener:

I have the same problem for 1-2 weeks both in the spring and fall. This year has been the worst. I fine having A/C usually helps.

If you have insurance go see your doctor. I had good luck finally with a prescription for Flonase or Fluticasone. Be sure to apply it correctly.

Most things like Claritin or Allegra you have to take for awhile to do any good.

Thanks for the help guys-- much appreciated :aok

I've figured out that I am running a fever of 102-ish... not allergies.

Off to bed, I think, and a Tylenol ought to help.

Thanks, night.
