How do I treat allergies if I have high blood pressure?
Benton asked:
I haven’t confirmed with my doc but I an 99% sure I have allergies and they are driving me nuts! I could just scratch my face off - especially my eyes. I have HBP (controlled by meds) so I always have to be careful of certain ingredients in meds. What will I be able to take? Please tell me there is hope!

Why does Panadol work better for my allergies than allergy tablets?
cactustree asked:
In Spring/Summer I often get allergies - runny nose, sneezing, irritated eyes, tiredness, headaches. I’ve tried a few different brands containing such things as Fexofenadine Hydrochloride (185mg). They pretty much never work.
A brand called “Chemists’ Own” with 500mg Paracetemol and 10mg Codeine Phosphate basically stops the sneezing and other symptoms.
Why on earth does this work better than drugs supposedly marketed towards allergies?

What can I do about allergies while pregnant?
nonyabiznas asked:
I have very bad allergies which make me sneeze a lot and give me itchy wattery eyes. I feel like I have to sneeze constantly and it’s making my throat sore. My doctor says that it is not safe to use allergy medication other than flonase, which seens to make it worse for me. Is there something else I can do?

How do people like me deal with life threatening allergies?
RLJ asked:
My body seems like having an allergy attack is a daily thing now. I’ve gotten so used to having hives daily it’s like if I forget to take my allergy meds then I will break out in the middle of the night. Last summer I would break out in hives everyday around 4pm not matter where I was or what I was doing. If it’s now hives my face, around my eyes, my lips, tongue, or throat will swell or fequent headaches. How do people deal with the same problems daily? HELP ME!! This doesn’t run in my family. I have it and now I’ve past it on to my daughter who hasn’t had them as severe as I yet. Can anyone dealing with the same problem give me any answers. The only stress that I have in my life is these allergies. I eat healthy and I used to exercise on my eliptical daily but now that I’m on allergy meds daily I just don’t have the energy anymore.
