need allergy relief!!

does anyone else suffer from seasonal allergies? i having a heck of a  time with them this year. anyone have any suggestions on OTC meds that have worked for them since having the surgery? thanks in advance...

Prescription strength flonase is my best friend when allergie****  Benedryl dries me out too much and makes me sleepy...not nearly as effective as flonase

I take OTC Claritin every day, as well as Flonase (not OTC) but the absolute best thing I've taken is Sudafed -- NOT Sudafed PE, but the stuff you have to get from the pharmacist and sign for.   Also the Sudafed/Guaifenesin combination (Sudafed Non-Drying Sinus, I think it's called) is REALLY good. Good luck!  I'm having a horrible time right now, also.... Lisa

I use the claritin and the prescription flonase which now comes in generic so it is not so expensive anymore.  I am suffering too.  THis allergy season is terrible. Melissa

It is best to see an allegeergist, they really help.  I use zyrtec (it is 1x/day), singulair (used for asthma and allergies) and flonase (a nasal spray).  Zyrtec works well with me, better than Allegra and claritin.  OTC , I siometimes use sudafed.  The problem with most otc meds is that they make you drowsy and they must be taken ever 4-6 hours.  Most new prescription meds are taken only 1x/day.
