Hay fever suffers

To all ye hay fever suffers out there I feel for ye.

In my own experience I suffer from it and have done for years. I go through the tablets line there is no tomorrow for a few months of the year. That was until I found out about the hay band. Some might know about it some might not. For those that don’t it’s available in most pharmacies. I went from taking a tablet a day for a few months of the year every year ( and didn’t always work. I still suffered a bit) to taking maybe 2 boxes in the last two years. 7 in a box.

It worked for. Best thing ever. For those that suffer try it out. It could be a life saver.

It was a tablet a day for me and when it got bad I had to take 2 just to ease it.

It’s horrible.

I know it doesn’t work for everyone but worth a try.

Only down fall is it leaves a tan line on your arm but it’s worth it

Telfast works for me too but gives me massive anxiety

I used to suffer from hayfever in my twenties and thirties. The only thing that worked for me was locally produced honey. It needs to be taken regularly a few weeks before the hayfever season begins. If you can manage to convince your immune system to stop overreacting to pollen, happy days.

I'm not exaggerating how good this tablet is.... I have been through all the different anti histamines with varying results, so I asked my doctor to give me the hay fever jab in April. She advised against it , citing it as drastic, but wanted me to try a different approach.

An anti histamine eases your bodies reaction to a material it believes to be allergic. The tablet I take is stopping my body from reacting in the first place. That is the best way I have of describing my understanding of it and I don't care if your going to nitpick if I'm wrong because all I know is that this tablet works.

It is called Singulair(Montelukast)

It is a tiny prescription tablet, twice a day. Not a hint of it since, I can smell grass again and not feel afraid.

If I forget to take it and feel the symptoms coming on, I take the tablet and within 40 mins they are gone.

Can't recommend highly enough

Bern through a number of 1st and 2nd gen tablets and while they worked they all zonked me out despite what they said about the 2nd gen ones. Then decided to try Beconase a few years ago and have never looked back. 3rd gen tablets are supposed to be better but are prescription only

Never heard of that being given for hayfever but my daughter has been using that since she was a child as part of her asthmatic meds.

Singular sounds like a silver bullet for allergic rhinitis, but one of the rare side effects may be anaphylaxis; medical supervision therefore required.

Vitamin D deficiency has also been linked to a worsening of hay fever symptoms, so unless you are working outdoors all the time, it's probably best get your levels checked by your GP.

Suffer terrible with it. Band is Ok. Peppermint essential oil and those hayfever wipes have eased it a little lately!

What do you mean by 1st/2nd gen etc??

I can't seem to take anything this year without it knocking me out.

They mean 1st or 2nd gen of the technology. I think claratin for example is 1st gen, ie its been around for years. The 2nd generation drugs are more recent and are supposed to cause less drowzyness. Its best to try all the available options to see what works for you.
