who here suffers from allergies?

[bulldawg_28]

What do you guys take for your allergies? This summer has been the worst for me. My allergies pretty much just randomly kick in any time of the day. I have no idea what I'm allergic to. Today I've been sneezing, nose running, and eyes have been watering since 10:00 this morning!!! It's slowed down to the point I can train finally.This shit is making me ****ing miserable!!!

I took some motrin (non drowsy) sinus and allergy medicine, but it hasn't done much. I can't take benadryl, it makes me fee like I'm hung over without the fun from the night before. I've got some other stuff, can't remember what it's called, but it's a Hy-Vee brand. This stuff works ok, but it knocks me out and leaves me being unproductive.

Does anybody have any advice on what to take?

claritin is an is an over the counter allergy med. i think u have a take it for a few weeks for it to kick in but its supposed to be pretty good. singulair is also good but thats prescription i believe.

[bulldawg_28]

I've tried claritin, but it really didn't seem to work well either. Where did you hear it takes weeks to kick in?

my doctor/surgeon. ive had sinus issues for years, tried many things including claritin and he said to take the claritin for a few weeks straight. found out later that my problems arent really allergy related, i have more severe issues so ill never know if claritin works or not...

You should look into allergy shots they've helped me alot for the few months ive been on them. Basically you get a shot every week, they make you go in for the first few months but after that you can do them yourself.

I was pretty screwed up so I had to get sinus surgery as well.

Honestly claritin and those types of medicines barely did anything for me although I did feel a little bit better, but nothing like the relief of surgery/allergy shots

I got allergy shots for 18 years..I stopped them about 5 years ago, but my allergies still flare up every once in a while and Allegra is by far the best allergy medicine Ive ever used. Go see a doc and get him to write a prescription for ya. Your allergy problems will go away in no time

yeah both my parents use the same shit and say it works great

I just take a generic antihistamine, it does the job most days for me, minus the few days where the air is full of pollen etc. I thought about allergy shots for a while but never bothered. Once the canadian winters hit, i have nothing to worry about, other than freezing to death

[tadpoleboyy]

ugh i cant do benadryl either that shit knocks me out, i use it to fall asleep. I just take claritin. I get mad allegies especially while mowing, but mine manifest themselves in the form of sneezing, that sucks u got the watery eye runny nose thing

[bulldawg_28]

I got an appointment with the doc on august 20th. The shitty deal is I can't taking anything except regular sudafed until then. I hope this shit works.

I had to take Claritin D...seems to work ok for me. My doc wrote me prescrip for Allegra, but the pharmacist said just to get the OTC Claritin...same thing.

[bulldawg_28]

This is kinda strange. Yesterday my allergies were REALLy acting up. My nose and eyes were running constantly, and I was sneezing literally 10-15 times in row like every half hour. I took some sudafed, didn't do shit like I figured it wouldn't. So to stop my nose from running I just stuck a couple pieces of paper towel in my nose. My eyes cleared up, and I stopped sneezing. But the second I take the paper towels out, my eyes IMMEDIATELY start watering, and I begin sneezing again. So it must be something in the air that's bothering me.

But today, I'm fine. WTF?

[Logan13]

I am allergic to stupid people...........

[rubix6]

I take the claritin 24 hour. it works really well

[Igifuno]

i've been taking Allegra-D for a few years and it works really well. i switched to claritin-d this year and it wasn't as good but still worked good enough to get me by.

[Pro_built7]

man deff get some allegra - D like igifuno said, i've had allergies all my life, horrible ones, and been on everything you name it, but trust me allegra-D is the shvvvvvvvvvtttt

[sonnygll]

I take generic loratidine. I am not sure which brand that is. It's just something that was priced well. It works just as well as any of the other ones.

I tried cyproheptidine too. I ordered it from Canada. It works better then anything I have tried. It clears up everything 100%. The draw back is it makes me to tired to do anything. So I can't really take it.

I had allergy shots for years when I was a kid too.
