Common Questions and Answers about Clarinex itching
clarinex
my mom has been experiencing this weird outbreak of hives all over her body, and when she has an outbreak it seems to cause severe joint pain,but not in the same joints it kinda travels around.she has been to an allergist but they put her on predisone and clarinex and zantec but as soon as the pred. is done the rash seems to rehash and the clarinex and othe meds seem not to help at all.
Claritin and Clarinex (they work very differently) might help. Claritin makes me light headed for 30 minutes, raises blood pressure a little but wears off after a few hours. Clarinex works better for me, lasts 14 hours on me. Both are pretty weak for antihistamines.
Other than this there is a couple more that use the same med as Claritin, so same effect pretty much. The other antihistamines usually cause drowsyness.
Don't know of too many nasal sprays with out steroids.
Because I suffer from bad hayfever every summer I take hayfever tablets to calm it down because It really annoys me when I'm having to get my tissue out all the time, eyes itching, eyes watering and turning bloodshot and sneezing a lot. But the tablets have only calmed It down a bit, I have tried two types of tablets and the second ones seem to be better but not 100%.
I got frustrated because it kept itching. There was a bubble of histamine under my skin from the injection. I took an oral antihistamine, waited 20 minutes, then took a towel with very hot water and started applying pressure and rubbing it to try and spread out the liquid injected under my skin. I did this for about 3 minutes. Then I only kept hot water on it for another minute.
The area is getting more red now after about 15 minutes. But the bubble is a little more flat.
Her OB and PCP told her that taking her clarinex was OK. She is miserable without it and right now has a wicked cold. I have been reading now that clarinex is OK to take and other sites saying it is not OK. She is 21 weeks right now. Why would they say it is OK if it isn't? Thanks for any info.
In the meantime, i have switched allergy medication from Clarinex to Xyzal, which may also be helping a little. I now take the allergy medication before bed whereas before, I had been taking Clarinex in the mornings.
I notice that the problem of too much mucus seems less prevalent in the mornings upon waking up. It worsens in the afternoon and evening, especially after meals.
Again, thank you for your input, Dr. Rajput.
First is the cough from a problem in side or something you are breathing in? A good test I use is a HEPA filted mask. (the kind you can get in the hardware store with canisters). Wearing that for 5 minutes should clear up the mucus quite a bit if it is something you are breathing in. Easy test and takes only 5 minutes. Try a deep breath with the mask on after 5 minutes and see if you still feel like coughing.
The reason I am up at 4:13 a.m., is because I am itching so bad. I have been off of interferons for almost 2 yrs., and yet I still have horrible side effects. So, from what I have read, this occurs in some people. The things that I have learned are as follows:
1. Do not take hot baths.This exagerates the itching.
2. I bought a Solarcane (or generic) burn relief spray, that has helped more than anything.
3. Try not to scratch for it worsens the condition.
4.
I use use Clarinex which helps a little. Tried Claritin and it did not do anything. Most nasal sprays help, a non steroid nasal spray such as NasalCrom might help too and is gentle with virtually no side effects. I found that allergy shots was the only thing that stopped it for me. I don't use nasal sprays anymore. My rynitis was really bad and clogging my air ways. Now it seems to be almost gone. I get a bit sticky but never more than clearing my throat kind of annoyance.
Try stopping current contact lens if you have them, try an oral antihistamine like Zyrtec, Claritin, or Clarinex, try an allergy drop like Patenol, Pataday, or Elestat, find out if you have allergies by seeing an allergist, then control any allergens that you are exposed to, see an ophthalmologist to be evaluated for possible oculare allergies, and also to be checked out for dry eyes. Good Luck.
ve been having similar problems with my hearing. I went to the doctor and he gave me clarinex and flonnase. The medications did nothing. I have spoken with two other people that have had similar issues with their hearing. One person said his problems went away after one month. I've had problems for one month and it doesn't seem do be getting any better.
I went to my doctor when experiencing thick post nasal drip, dizziness, puffy eye and she diagnosed me with a sinus infection and put me on augmenten for 10 days. The mucus is now clear but the thick clear sticky post nasal drip is still chronic. I'm constantly snorting and spitting up mucus. I went to the ENT and he prescribed Nasonex and Mucinex. But it did not help. He then did a scope and found an abudnance of thick sticky mucus and he suctioned some of it out.
I have taken at least 10 different inhalers, clarinex, antibiotics, antacids, and nasal spray. Nothing works. I now also have a small lump behind my left ear (not sure if it is related in any way or not). If this was due to allergies or asthma, wouldn't the inhalers and meds have helped? What other possibilities could there be or should I be trying something else or getting another opinion a this point.
I am currently taking Clarinex and prescription nose spray wit a steroid in it. Nothing helps my allergies. it is so bad i cannot even irrigate my nostrils with a neti pot- the water doesn't drip through.
I a supposed to start allergy shots on tuesday of next week. Does anybody have any insight to this? Will this work for me? I was considering getting a surgery to clear my nasal airway. i know it won't cure my allergies but will help my quality of life.
She told me that my x-ray looks ok, but my eardrums looked rather tight/slightly swollen. She thinks I’ve got a chronic sinus infection. She put me on Clarinex and 2 nasal sprays to fix the problem. It’s been 5 days but I’m still struggling to breathe. Leading a normal life is really difficult. It’s worst in the morning (4-10AM) and at night (8-11PM). In between my breathing is still fairly labored, but not as bad.
prescribed me a medication called Nucynta for my back pain. Shortly after I took it I began itching. I read up about this med and itching can be one of the side effects. I just sent my husband to get me some benedryl - but I'm wondering if I should bother my doctor about this or?? Is it possible that this itching will only get worse? Honestly, I'm not looking forward to jumping from med to med - looking for something that I don't have a reaction to ... oh well, if I must, I must.
