Allergy attack!!!

I am having band allergies, from itchy and watery eyes to sneezing, coughing! Men, name it, I have it. Am 21wks pregnant now, yay!! But  What can I do? Is it safe to take meds for it? If it is safe, what meds will be good?

I also have bad allergies. I hate taking anything because even brands that state they are non drowsy make me light headed. The best thing for me in the past was Allegra. But I only take that if my allergies are so bad that the inside of my mouth gets itchy.

Zyrtec and claritin are safe. Zyrtec is the best though.

Try taking home remidies like plain water steam, twice a day, it gives awesome results for cold,  cough and watery eyes. This is free from any side effects. I do this all the time.

Check with the doctor but he will more than likely firmly recommend Claritin and warn against Benadryl. keep us posted.

I have really bad allergies also. Even got a sinus infection this time ! Benadryl didn't do anything to me but what you can take is over the counter benadryl, zyrtec, and claritin. zyrtec works better. Don't mix the med
