clarinex

Avatar n tn 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. You could ask yoru doc for free samples of Clarinex since it seems to be the stronger of the bunch for low side effects. But also might not do as much as you want. Some help might be better then no med...?
Avatar f tn 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.
Avatar n tn 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.
345124 tn?1234483278 I have had your exact same symptoms for close to two years now - incredibly frustrating to say the very least. The only thing the doctors have ever noticed is that my eardrum is pulled in from allergic rhinitis with post-nasal drip. Could you tell me if your treatment successfully helped you? I'd love to get this fixed.
Avatar m tn For the itchy bumps, take antihistaminics like Benadryl(causes drowsiness) and Claritin and apply some calamine lotion on the rashes as it helps in soothing the skin.You can also apply mild steroid cream on the rash.If the symptoms persists then oral steroids may be needed which are available on prescription. Also keep the area well moisturized with good moisturiers. If the itching persists then pls get it evaluated from a dermatologist. I hope that helps.
Avatar n tn i sneeze often,eye hitching and wounds on my nose even when i avoid the things that i'm allergic to which is mostly the natural air and mostly at night and raining time i also avoid fans. see my doctors and they say it's allergic chronic rynitis and i have also snap an x-ray to them .
Avatar m tn t harm the nose like other nasal sprays. It works on the Immunoglobulin A in the nose which traps the allergens before it gets to your blood and so you won't product histamine (which is what gives you the symptoms). It has to be used before you get exposed and daily. It isn't perfect but nothing is. Try to maybe get some allergy shot testing to see what you are allergic to and avoid it if possible. It may be dust in the house or plants growing outside. etc.
177337 tn?1310059899 I take Claritin (aka Loratadine) regularly. I have no problems. Claritin D is not a good choice because the decongestant contains pseuffedrin and can therefore exacerbate arhythmias. But I have never had anything work as well as Claritin and it does not seem to effect my PVC's, SVT OR vasovagal responses (all of which I have issues with at times).
Avatar f tn 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. She is getting so frustrated and has no idea where to turn next and who she should go to for further assistance, PLEASE HELP!!!!!
Avatar m tn I have the same problem. I have been with my girlfriend for over 18 months and in the last 2 months I have had Red spots which are not raised on my penis head and they get more visible after sex or masturbation and faid off not long after but are always there. I also used a cream with cortizone in it and it takes the redness away and you can hardly notice it but when i stop using the cream the redness comes back within 24 hours.
Avatar f tn Also, oxy is more soluble and I believe it is a first pass metabolite, meaning it crosses the blood brain barrier after one pass thru the liver, where hydro is metabolized twice by the liver before becoming active. Oxy is much more powerfull than hydro per milligram and has a meaner withdrawel too.
1569985 tn?1328247482 I have taken Phythmol for yrs and all I can say Is I didn't have to start it in a hospital and it is in the same class as Flecainide but i really don't think it is as strong a drug. It helped me stay out of arrhythmia but like all the rest, it eventually becomes pro-arrhythmic and will actually bring on episodes....it may be months...it may be years...but it will happen.
Avatar f tn Clartin, zyrtec and benadryl are fine. I would also recommend using a neti pot. It takes a couple of tries to get use to but it does help.

Avatar f tn So quitting Clariton D is the same as quitting speed. Speak to your doctor about this.
Avatar m tn You need to send the mucus or throat swab for culture, microscopy, staining to rule out the pathogen. Antibiotic sensitivity of culture will decide the effective drug as the antibiotic you may be taking is ineffective or pathogens are resistant. Firstly I suggest you to consult physician for possible causes and further management. Take care and regards.
Avatar n tn We are both afraid he will get in trouble though since he is no longer prescribed that. Is it the same thing, other than the tylenol, or will it be found on a mouth swab? Thanks for any advice!
Avatar f tn It's not the same the clomid is to help you Ovulate and the progestrone suppliement are to keep you progestrone high enough to sustain an healthy pregnancy and baby asprin is a low dose asprin 81 Mg I took all three and still take the baby asprin......
Avatar f tn One last thing I wanted to mention was that swollen ankles seems to be a more common sx with recovering addicts, but your husband has other issues as well, any other reason could result in swollen ankles. Another thing is his age, he is the same age as I am.
Avatar f tn I was wondering if metformin was the same thing as glucophase? Or is it like clomid, a drug that helps produce babies. I have already taken glucophase and want to try clomid, hope someone knows, let me know.
Avatar f tn t care what my Doctor said or any other Doctor. Generic Effexor is not the same. I was switched to Generic and now I am having the same side effects as when I tried to go off Effexor. The Brain Shocks and Nausea are terrible.
