What allergy medicine has worked for you?

Wednesday, April 11th, 2012

I’m allergic to pollen and my whole life I have had really bad hay fever in the spring. I’ve been taking Claritin and generic versions of it for years now and I don’t feel like it really helps me anymore. I wonder if I’ve built up a tolerance for it, or maybe just I need something stronger. Can anyone recommend an allergy medication that has worked for them? I know some of them make you drowsy but I don’t really care about that. I’d rather be drowsy than sneeze all day!

I have had peanut allergy, I consult with an allergen he told me to avoid nuts from my diet. I’m a vegitarian so it is not possible for avoiding all nut.Is there any other way to cure it totally? Should I stop eating a food if I think I’m allergic to it?

Is allergy serum considered a part of medical service or is it considered prescription drug?

Tuesday, March 27th, 2012

My insurance plan has different coverages for medical service and for prescription drug. My allergy serum is concocted by my allergist, so is it in the “medical service” category or “prescription drug” category?

Thanks!

What is good allergy medicine that wont get me drowsy?

Monday, March 19th, 2012

I’ve had horrible allergies these past few days and the main thing about I can’t stand it is that I have a really bad runny nose.

I took benadryl but my allergy attack didn’t get any better and it got me really dizzy, SO, what’s some good medicine that will take my ichy eyes/throat, sneezing, and most of all runny nose away without getting me sleepy?

Thanks.

How does desensitization therapy and allergy shots work for people with allergies?

Sunday, March 11th, 2012

I have allergies all year round! Now allergy shots…the goal is to give gradual exposure so that the body can “get use to it” and become desensitized. It’s supposed to make the body react less to the allergens. But why haven’t the body “gotten use” to the allergens after years of exposure and symptoms already? Claritin and Zyrtec isn’t working…even with a combo usage of Sudafed. Help!?
