Allegra While Pregnant?!

I am dying of a 48 hour allergy attack! Clarita does NOT help and the only thing that did before my pregnancy was Allegra.. I am 24.5 weeks along, could I get away with a dose?

Ask your doctor.  Don't self-prescribe something as far-reaching as an allergy med.

My doctor actually told me that allegra was fine to take as long as its the regular kind not allerga D. But I didn't take it all of the time... N my baby is perfectly healthy, benadryl is good to take too.U should ask ur doctor n see what ur comfortable taking Bcus everyone is different. Good luck:-)

I also took allegra before pregnancy, it was the only thing that worked. However, it is not advised during pregnancy. Take Benadryl instead. Its a safe drug to take while carrying baby.
