Patient discussion about seasonal allergic rhinitis.

Q. I have chronic hayfever problems in the mornings for the first hour.Seems to be a correlation with dairy produ I also got asthma 8 years ago at age 69, after having 2 pet cats. It is controlled with 2 puffs of Symbicord daily, am & pm. Anyone managed a complete cure?

A. Allergies/hay fever/asthma-No CURE as of now,controlled by medication. ther also are two types of asthma-cardiac asthma usually you find in older people,next time you talk to your DR-ask him-sometimes DRs do not want to upsat there patients--asthma attacks can happen from food allergies,see what he/she saids about it----good luck-mrfoot56

Q. Regarding Seasonal Nasal allergy. My father is suffering from seasonal nasal allergies. He took a 24-hour loratadine pill, 5 hours ago. His nose is still running just like it was. Can I take a benedryl, or is it dangerous to mix loratadine and benedryl? What else can I do to stop my nose?

A. except well known drug interactions- most Dr. check it out with a computer program they have. you need to ask a Dr. or a pharmacist about it. but i can tell you that if you wait 4 times the T1/2 - that is enough to consider the drug out of the system.
