well they actually would all probably help; but there’s a few other things that we need to know here. does the patient want to have something that’s gonna cause ‘em drowsiness or something that’s not gonna make them tire. the other question i have is are they actually living with the pet? you know it’s one of those things that they might go over to a house once in a while occasionally where there are pets there that they have this allergic reaction to and in that case there’s different choices based on that medication. for something quick zyrtec or -- over-the-counter is a great choice. it will cause a little bit of tiredness; but it does work usually within 30 minutes. claritin is a non-drowsy one but sometimes you have to take it for a few days before it’ll make you feel better. but once again we just need a little bit more information. but if the patient can go to their pharmacist and ask them and tell them “yes i live with the cat year-round” and things like that we can help them in the right direction as far as what product over the counter may be a good choice or refer them to the proper healthcare professional.
i have cat allergies and wanted to know which over-the-counter and prescription medications might help.
