Flixonase - Best allergy relief on the market

Advantages: Works immediately and is sustainable
Disadvantages: Does not help with ichy eyes

I have tried many hayfever remedies over the years but have yet to find one that cures at least two of the symptoms...until now. Generally I would go for tablets such as antihistamines for ease and in my opinion I thought they were more affective than the sprays, wax or powders on the market. However, after having a particularly bad summer of allergies last year, I decided to investigate the best cures on the market and came across Flixonase. I was ...
...thought it was a fair price to at least try it. On the first use I saw immediate affects! Taking it in the middle of a high pollen the day I felt my nose clear, my sinuses relaxed and the lightheadedness disappeared. My throat didn't itch and my ears didn't water. It has event stood the test of the park, which has many trees and bushes full of pollen but prevailed in the conditions. You'll have to reads the label first to make sure you can take it ...

Review of Flixonase Nasal Spray

Excellent way to reduce allergy symptoms

Advantages: Easy to use, no obvious side-effect, not taken internally
Disadvantages: Takes 2-3 days to feel the full effect

I have been using Beconase for nearly 15 years, since it first became widely available in the UK. It works (as far as I can gather) roughly by preventing the inflammation of the mast cells in the nasal passages and thus stopping the mucus discharge. It has been superb for stopping a continuous runny nose and sneezing from my house dust allergy. It works better than antihistamines and doesn't make you drowsy. I use it every day for a week, then I ...
...get asthma - Beconase is NOT for asthma because it works purely locally within the nose When you use it you sometimes get a tingling sensation in the nose which can make you sneeze initially, but you need to keep going for 3 days to feel the effect. ...

Review of Rhinolast Hayfever Nasal Spray

Quick allergy relief

Advantages: cheapest available, instant action, no side effects
Disadvantages: only available in small packs

I've only been suffering from hayfever in the last couple of years, and am lucky enough to not suffer from any other allergies. My symptoms for hayfever are pretty standard - itchy/watery eyes, runny nose, headaches and sneezes. It's not so bad that I feel awful with it, but the symptoms are very irritating - so I try to manage them. So, I can only comment on how these tablets affected me & not how they would work for someone that has a more severe ...
...price of hayfever and allergy tablets on the expensive side, and when they come in packs of 7 or 14 and you need to take a tablet a day, this can soon mount up. This is why I tried Tesco's own version, as it was the cheapest option available at the time. These also come in packs of 7 and 14, I always opt for the larger packs as they provide better value for money. The tablets come in a plastic tray with foil covering, inside a cardboard box. There ...
