I’ve tried lots of allergy meds but nothing seems to work! What are some really good ones? I’m willing to try anything! I’m beyond tired to my allergies. Thanks in advance.
Claritin, Zyrtec, and Allegra are good for everyday use.
Benadryl is my holy grail. It honestly gets rid of allergic reactions in ten minutes for me.
Good luck! (:
Okay people, I have asthma. I also have bad allergies. I’ve been taking my albuterol for about a year now, when I first got my asthma. Unfortunately, I probably need some Daily asthma medicine to help control it. Thing is though, all the medicines I could take have horrible, horrible side effects that leaves me not wanting to take them. I know, I’ve taken predizone before and hated it. I’ve also been looking some up.
What medicine is there that does help but has the least, ‘nicest’ side effects?
Salbutamol (ventolin). Its only Real side affect is Short runs of tachycardia that last less than half an hour. I use it for my allergy to dust mites. But of course this will have to be prescribed by your Physician this is just my opinion
Grandma keep claiming this and I think it sounds dangerous. People die from some allergies.
As an example: If you are allergic to shellfish eat shellfish daily and you will be cured from the allergy.
The only way that really works is when the allergist does it through shots. They start out with a very tiny fraction of the substance such as one part per ten million.
I used to have dogs and never had an allergy problem. Five years later when I bought my own puppy I started suffering common allergy symptoms such as runny nose, sneezing, itchy nose/eyes/throat, hives, and nasal congestion. I don’t plan on giving him away, and I also don’t want to have to keep buying over the counter allergy products that aren’t usually covered by insurance. What is the best long term allergy medicine?
You can buy the generic store brands of OTC allergy medicines which are cheaper. I know that sometimes Walgreens puts their own brand of allergy meds on sale for really good prices now and then. Once I purchased a 150 count bottle of Walgreen’s generic Zyrtec (great for pet allergies) for $25.00. So check around for that.
My dad and many people on his side of the family have asthma. My dad is also a doctor. He said that I should go to get an asthma test. I have to breath into a spirometer and do some other tests. I recently started smoking marijuana. About once every weekend or two. Could this asthma test tell if I have been smoking weed recently. If so, how recently?
idk stop smoking long enough for it to be out of your system maybe put the asthma test of for as long as you can good luck
I have had a really bad allergy "attack" for the last 2 weeks. I have tried Allegra and Claritin, and my nose is still stuffed up to the point where I can barely breathe, my eyes are still watering, and my nose is continually running. It’s gross!! And my husband is a light sleeper and isn’t getting much sleep when I’m constantly waking up in the middle of the night blowing my nose. What can I take that works asap that I can get over the counter?
These are the best allergy medicines according to surveys and research.
-Claritin
-Zyrtec
-Benadryl
-Chlor-Trimeton
-Cortaid
-Visine-A
-Pseudoephedrine Hydrochloride
But before taking any of those. Better consult a doctor first if it is safe for you.
Ok if you have Asthma and you cant run or even walk a long distance without bein out of breathe and your pretty much healthy does that mean that you need to get a daily Asthma medicine from your doctor or what????? Please Help Me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hi there,
I have severe asthma. I have had countless attacks and I’ve had to go to the hospital countless times.. This isn’t to scare you but i would go to the doctor and get some daily medicine. It could be life-threatening if you don’t.
Good luck, I know that helped me so go ahead and try it.

If somebody is seriously allergic to something, serious meaning exposure to this item is life threatening. How do those people figure out that they have that allergy? Do they just get exposed and it’s figured out then or are their warning signs that Doctors can see? Because if their exposed they can possibly die or get seriously sick. So is their a way to tell before an exposure happens?
People who have life threatening allergies most of the time find out when they are young. The symptoms are somewhat less severe and can be treated and avoided throughout their lifetime.
I am considering getting allergy shots for my bad cat allergies because I absolutely love cats but can’t be around them because I get severe allergy problems. Irritated skin, irritated eyes and severe sneezing.
I have heard allergy shots over a 3 year period may eliminate the allergy altogether but it is costly and not 100% guaranteed.
Is the success rate high for getting rid of cat allergies with allergy shots?
Do you think it is worth it?
Thanks for answering.
thats a doctor question….
I have always had really bad allergies to cats but I love them so much so it is really hard to have allergies. I am a wreck if I am in a house that has/had a cat(s).
I heard that there is treatment with allergy shots over a 3 year period but there are no guarantees that it will work and it would cost me about $1200 in total to do.
Do you think it is worth it? How high is the success rate?
It takes about 5 yrs worth of shots to get rid of allergies. They have studied and found that after 5 yrs, the shots don’t do any good.
