Guest guest Posted April 21, 2007 Report Share Posted April 21, 2007 My friend has been suffering terribly from allergies this year. Her doctor ordinarily prescribes Claritin, but it is no longer effective. Since her doctor was out of town and she is utterly miserable, she went to the Urgent Care Center. The doctor there prescribed Benedryl. My friend told the doctor that she needs to be able to drive and asked if it would make her sleepy. The doctor said that it might be better to wait until she was home to take it and then on the way out the door said, " Oh by the way, it might be 3 or 4 days before it kicks in. " Exasperated with the allopaths, she is now looking for natural remedies. I thought perhaps people in this group might have some tips for avoiding allergic reactions to plants/pollen. I have advised her to get an ionizer/air cleaner for her home. Do you have any other suggestions, please? Thank you, Ann Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
