What are you doing to treat them?
I take Benadry at night and the Dayquil in the day - anyone have any better ideas?

Nothing OTC worked for me. Claritin zonked me. I was put on Singulair because I am asthmatic. I wasn't taking it because my Advair controls the asthma and I wanted to be on as little medication as possible.

Then I saw an ad for Singulair aimed at people with seasonal allergies. I had pills on hand and started taking them.

It is the ONLY thing that worked. I was so miserable too, I can't believe I didn't try it sooner. My mouth gets a bit dry, but it beats being constantly runny-nosed!

I love Rynatan, but I am a zombie after taking it. I fall down stairs and everything. But I swear 1 pill and I won't sneeze for 4 days. Now I am taking Zyertec.

Is Singulair the inhaler?
