Antihistamine is a term used to define a group of medicines that are designed to relieve the symptoms of allergies. When people get an allergic reaction, their body produces certain chemicals that are responsible for irritating tissues and organs such as the nose, eyes, throat, lungs and skin. The antihistamine drugs prevent the activity of these chemicals by blocking them in various ways.
Allergy season is one of the most difficult times for those suffering from allergies — and those around them. While there are many antihistamines, they may not all be equally helpful. In this article, we’ll find out which ones work best.
Prescription Antihistamine For Itching
Looking for the best antihistamine for allergies? There are many antihistamines you can purchase over the counter. However, look at the ingredients. Some antihistamines contain only 1 or 2 active ingredients, while some have 3 or 4 active ingredients. But tablets can also give you drowsiness which may cause problems while driving and working.
The most effective dosage of diphenhydramine and chlorpheniramine can be found in Zyrtec Allergy 24 Hour Tablets. The tablet forms of medications will not cause a build-up in your system like the capsules or softgels would, so there is less chance of experiencing drowsiness while driving or operating machinery.
