What is the best otc medicine or supplement for seasonal allergies?

In the last 1 1/2 months, I have been dealing with a runny nose, sneezing, itchy eyes- seems like 24/7. I hear bee pollen works well. I am a lifelong allergy/asthma sufferer who has probably taken almost every drug out on the market today (otc and prescription), not to mention allergy shots too. Prior to the start of the summer, I was fine. Actually, the only thing I was taking was Advair. I haven't had allergy shots for 2 years; it seemed like I was doing well without them. I think that I have built up an immunity to many drugs, such as Benadryl. Any suggestions to a new route I might take? I am also reconsidering going back to allergy shots.

I have the same problem, this works for me ...

Chlor-Trimeton. You can also get the generic ...Chlorpheneramine Maleate. (it costs less). Hope it helps you.
Reply:It sounds as if you are really suffering. Allergy shots will usually work, although you do have to get them regularly. Claritin is most recommended OTC. Good luck.
Reply:Go to www.GoXanthones.com and listen to the audio link on allergies by Dr. John Edwards. He uses mangosteen juice to treat allergies naturally and has seen great results.



To obtain mangosteen juice go to www.mangosteendiscovery.com It's all natural, no side effects and tastes absolutely fantastic. Fully patented product



Our mangosteen product, XANGO, is the #1 functional health beverage in the world today.........bar none!
Reply:I have the same problem and I visited the doctor yesterday. I am on a cheaper brand name version of Advair called Qvar. The doc had also recommended that I invest in the OTC drug Claritin-D. It's good for drying out the sinuses and it's non-drowsy.
Reply:Go to your doctor so he can prescribe for you some anti-histimines. I take one everyday to prevent me from such allergies related to dust etc. You also need regular preventive asthma treatment also. You can see both the chest doctor and Asthma management officer who will help you manage your asthma too.
Reply:alavert.. the dissolving pills on your tongue... buy them otc and check it out, at walmart.com
Reply:Try a product called Himalayan Goji Juice. It works wonders, it is all natural and I have been using this for over a year. It is awesome.
Reply:Probably best if you asked an allergist or a PA/Nurse Practitioner. I'm on a combo of meds, which may or may not work for you. Different people respond differently, so you need something that works for YOU.
Reply:I used to have severe allergy problems. I would hack up a ton of mucus every morning, and blow my nose all day long. Those were my good days. :-) A year ago a friend of ours told us about a natural product called Reliv that has made my allergy problems a thing of the past. Send me an email and I will tell you more.



Take care and God bless,

Reply:OTC meds do not help me. I have to take a prescription for allergies (Allegra). When I lived in the north, I had to have shots. I live in the south now and don't have to because there is different vegitation here.
Reply:go to the allergy clinic and see the doctor

there are new drugs available that can help you
Reply:Allergies sometimes indicate that there is an imbalance within the body. Most commonly, the imbalance is an overgrowth of Candida yeast fungi. By addressing the overgrowth, the body has the opportunity to rebalance and often times the symptoms just disappear.
Reply:Claritin or Benadryl
