Tips On Using Antihistamines

If your symptoms are not too severe, you can consult with your pharmacist for the recommended antihistamine that will help you manage your symptoms:

• Take it early so it has time to be in your body before exposure to the allergen - about an hour before going outdoors.
• If you need to use antihistamines on a long-term basis, change the antihistamine as your body may become used to one type.
• Do not drink alcohol with antihistamines.
• Oral antihistamines are more effective than creams containing antihistamines, even for skin allergies.
