At last the weather is warming up and Hay Fever season is about to commence. Symptoms include itchy eyes and nose, sneezing, streaming nose and congestion. Best to stock up on the antihistamines now. Best brands are the non sedating once a day varieties such as acrivastine, cetirizine, loratadine, fexofenadine and mizolastine. Those on Grazax and Staloral immunotherapy should have started by now otherwise the treatment will be ineffective for grass pollen allergy. Check with your local pharmacist.
