I've never suffered from anything more than a little stuffiness at times, but my sinuses have been kicking my butt this last week. Had to resort to Sudafed to get through my SCUBA classes.

But I have it easy compared to many. A buddy who works with me has been switching from one prescription to another trying to get relief. Some days he can't go 2 minutes without sneezing. But he keeps on truckin'.

I havn't taken an Allergy pill, Tylonal (sp?), etc... in over a year now. No allergy problems for me, but the lack of sleep seems to get me down sometime.

It's 11:50 PM, and my sinuses are flat out killing me. Living in the Empire of the South doesn't help matters much either. Stupid pollen.

loretadine works fine for me most of the time, but the best thing I ever used long term was Rhinocort (like an asthma inhaler for your nose). you feel like a toolbox cokehead when you take it, but boy, does it ever work good...

If you feel like taking a trip to the MD for a scrip, try it, you'll like it.

Fortunately I don't suffer from allergies bad enough to have to medicate. I get a few sniffles and a little itchy nose occasionally in the spring but that's about it. Those of you who are suffering, you have my condolences, it's gotta suck big time

My allergies kill me starting late summer but for some reason they are kicking in a bit now (probably tree pollen). I'll be getting the runny nose, ITCHY watery eyes and I've tried a lot of meds but none seem to do much except for the eye drops, I dread late summer.

I had allergies really bad so I went to the doctor a couple years ago and started to get allergy injections. It takes a bit of time at first ( shots twice a week by the doc ) but now I just get a shot every month and in a couple of months I wont need any shots for a few years. This way is totally worth it and IT WORKS!!

I have no idea what the RX name brand is my wife uses, but it works miracles.

zertech (sp?) or something like that.
