Help for allergies

[Guest guest]

I'm not really sure what advice to give to this mom, who is on my local WA state

list, was wondering if anyone could give advice?

My son has terrible hay fever type of allergies this time of year. I was called

to pick him up from school this afternoon due to extremely red and swollen eyes.

His nose is not really running, just horrible red itchy eyes. He is non-verbal,

so I am not sure if he has a sore throat, headache and everything else that

comes with allergies.

I had a doctor do the skin testing for allergies and I give him sublingual

drops. He has been on the drops for a little over a year now. I was told that

it takes a year for them to work the best. I have been giving him five drops a

day (spaced throughout the day) and I am still giving him Allergra (60 mg twice

a day) that his regular doctor prescribed.

Does anyone have any other ideas? Any help would be appreciated.
