I keep a bottle of Benadryl in my house and my cars. If I get in contact with a cat or some allergies kick in, it’s always a really good fix.

My allergies usually involve blurry watery eyes and without Benadryl I’m toast.

Allegra works if you take it every day. Benadryl works now.

It’s also a great sleeping pill if I can’t get to sleep on a campout.

Have to considered seeing an allergist?

Mine performed the skin prick test on me, determined what my allergies were and set up an injection therapy targeting those particular irritants.

Yes, it took 3 years of injections once a month, but now during allergy season I have nearly zero issues.

For me it was worth the time and my insurance picked up everything but a small copay per visit.
