Allegra with sudafed
Common Questions and Answers about Allegra with sudafed
allegra
I have really bad allergies and can usually get away with just Zyrtec but this year they are way worse and my doc told me to switch it up and try Claritin or Allegra the Allegra seems to work the best when I also take a sudafed but don't take the combo one just plan Allegra and plain sudafed.
I felt quite tired/weird dizzy though this wedding so I obviously overdosed. I remember that I use to take things like hismanol and sudafed which have since been banned as they have been found to be dangerous.
Could this have caused me any long term permanent damage?
A few years ago my dr found a strong heart murmur which is being monitored. Apparantly I have a small hole that they cant see on ultrasound.
Could the allergy medication have done this?
Can allergies cause swollen throat, tight chest, shortness of breath ??
Each morning I wake up, I start to hack up mucus all day long, my throat feels really harsh like sand paper friction when I swallow, throat is swollen, tight chest, shortness of breath and feel as if I have a noose around my neck from muscle stiffness, and my nostrils are always swollen.
ve tried 3 different antibiotics for sinus infection. Also tried flonase, allegra, and Sudafed. Nothing seems to help. I feel pressure mostly in my forehead. I don't have any congestion with mucus or anything. I've had a sinus x-ray, CT scan, and MRI, which were all fine and showed nothing wrong with sinuses. I usually clean my ears out with a q tip after showering. I used to get some wax out, however, after this started, I can't get any wax out.
I would sit tight till they open. These are such new drugs and only your Dr can give you the green light. You don't want to risk SVR unless you know for sure.

He has done quite well with Allegra for seasonal allergies, and even better with Zyrtec. Zyrtec is OTC but allegra is not. Both are well tolerated with Risperdal. Benaadryl is not good with Risperdal. My son, age 17, is zonked out when he takes both. He basically is out like a light and doesn't wake up in the morning (until about 12 hours later) the few times he has taken it. Not good at all. Claritin does not work for him either, nor anyone in my family.
PLAIN Sudafed ONLY. Nothing with added ingredients! That's what my OB said!
I've been sick off and on a lot with my sinuses my ob told me to take sudafed so I'm taking the nasal decongestant sudafed that the pharmacy said was safe. My concern is I haven't heard good things about taking it anyone else taking it and everything turned out ok with their baby? 29weeks tomorrow also.
So my Dr told me to take Sudafed for this head cold. However, they were adamant that I make sure I get the kind we have to sign for and not the OTC one. I was wondering why because I know the one we sign for has the stuff that people use to make meth but the OTC stuff does not. So what is the difference?
I am a 13 year old girl and I have been taking sudafed for 4 days now and OI was just awoken shaking uncontrollably could this be why?

After getting a URI over a month ago I took Antibiotics and thought I kicked it but shortly after the course of Ab's was completed I continued to suffer from congestion, cough, increasing sinus pressure, sneezing (frequently in sets of a half dozen or more), scratchy throat, insanely clogged ears where I feel as if I'm hearing underwater and cannot pop-yawn my left ear for over 5 days now.
I asked my pharmacist today because I have the same allergy issues - je said Lortadine OTC is perfectly safe (Claritin) just NO Sudafed or Psuedaphedrine (Claritin D or Allegra D). He also said my Flonase is safe. I take both on bad days, but I also diffuse OnGuard Essential Oil which helps tremendously as well. Hope that helps you!
Well I have had Hashimoto for the past 10 years, and I also have had allergy problems and have taken Allegra D for the past 4 years. I don't think allegra had anything to do with my hashimoto/hypothyroid.
I started getting the signs of a sinus infection in October 2013 and immediately jumped to attacking it with nasal sprays, sudafed and antibiotics. The antibiotics would clear me up for about a week, but my symptoms always returned. I was getting awful pressure behind my cheek bones and between my eyes. But, what no one could explain was my tension headache that went along with it as it was across my forehead.
My doctor said I have seasonal allergies 8 months ago. A few weeks ago, I was outside (feeling fine) had a sneezing attack which left me feeling sick like turning on a light switch (runny nose, sinus pressure, watery eyes, sneezing). I finally began to feel much better this week until the filter on my vacuum cleaner came off and spilled all over the carpet. I immediately began having these violent sneezing fits....very messy!
