this is a great question but i’d like to ask this patient if they’re taking their medicine every day. some allergy medicines need to be in the body consistently so therefore there’s a level of the antihistamine in your system and therefore you don’t feel the symptoms of what’s going on. so if the patient isn’t taking this medication every day they’re not gonna have the benefit from it. and if allegra isn’t working its okay because one of the things that we’re finding out is that people differ when it comes to medications. i may take a tablet and you’re gonna take a tablet we’re gonna have a different reaction to it and some therapies might have to be adjusted; and there are other medications available as prescription for allergy symptoms. if the physician or healthcare provider decides that maybe they wanna try an over-the-counter claritin or zyrtec would be probable you know products that could be chosen.
i have a cough and itchy throat. i’ve tried allegra but it isn’t helping. would claritin or zyrtec be better?
