god damn allergies...

[Al B. Sure!]

I don't get it... there's like no trees here and I still got real bad allergies.

how do yall who got them to deal with them? Even when I take Benedryl I'm still sneezing.

what are you allergic to?

[Edan]

Have you considered using an air purifier?

Dust and mold are common allergens inside buildings, particular older buildings. If you live in an apartment complex, ask around on your floor and others and see if any of the other tenents have similar symptoms. If you find a lot of people agreeing, bring it to the landlord's attention. It shouldn't cost much to have someone test the building for mold.

Wind currents through city streets can easily carry pollen and such from city parks...straight to your nose.

pollen...

Drosedars... it's probably pollen since i just started getting them in the past week and any dust problems i would have had for a while... but nah the landlord wouldn't give a damn. it's actually funny that some tenant here has resorted to spray-painting the walls here cursing at the landlord and the super saying they need to fix up the building.

but anyway... does anyone here take claritin? does it work better than benadryl and tylenol sinus?


thanks

claritin sux..

according to my exp

[Al B. Sure!]

exp?

Well, if there are more problems related to the building then you and the others tenets need to contact the relevant authorities and report the situation. If the man (or woman) simply can't afford most repairs, perhaps the Housing authority has assistance programs available. If the person in question is a deadbeat landlord, then they're breaking the law. If they're just an *ssh*le, then you need to move to a new apartment...

fvcking pollen.

i take claritin-d. i felt a bit mixed about the deregulation of it, since it meant that i'd have to pay more, but i'd avoid having to get the prescription. unfortunately, i didn't realize that claritin isn't the same as claritin-d, so until i run out of the box of claritin i have, i won't go back to my old medication.

for me, it's not as effective, because claritin has no nasal decongestant. claritin-d does. and i like to breathe without sneezing.

I have taken Claritin for years, and it has worked much better for me than Benadryl. But that's just me.

[Al B. Sure!]

does claritin work better than benadryl and tylenol sinus though? and how much more expensive is it?

[Al B. Sure!]

oh my god... a message just popped up for claritin...

[DRoseDARs]

It's a sign...

[Q Classic]

for me, claritin works better than benadryl. benadryl knocks me out almost as well as nyquil does.

claritin doesn't make me drowsy at all.

however, for about 30 pills of regular claritin-24hr, it's about us$25 at sam's club. claritin-d 24hr is about the same for 20 pills.

[Al B. Sure!]

its just one pill a day? i usually only have allergies for a month... maybe 25 dollars is a good deal if it really works better than this benadryl
