I take Claritan--my Allergist considered putting me on Zyrtec, but he said that if the Claritan works for me with no side effects, I should just stay on it. I need to take it every day now because of my cat and dust mite allergies.

I am on Zyrtec and I also use Tylenol PM or real OTC allergy med at night (you wouldn't believe what I went through before I started shots 4 years ago!!!) in addition to the Zyrtec and nasal sprays.

I use Equate brand multi-symptom cold relief, nighttime formula.

In our house we use daily or often these allergy meds:

Claritin (tablets and Redi-tabs)

Flonase (nasal spray)

Patanol (eye drops)

Benadryl (tablets and liquid)

For cold/flu symptoms we also use Dimetapp liquid.

I used to use Zyrtec for my seasonal allergies, until my insurance stopped paying and I refused to pay $75 out of pocket each month! They told me to use Claritin. Claritin doesn't really help me, but I can pretty much control my allergies with the Patanol drops and the Flonase.

I used Zyrtec, it worked fairly well for me. Then I tried Claritin, which doesn't touch mine. Allegra just gives me smashing headaches. I like the Patanol for my eyes (I can see! I can see!), but the AquaCort spray caused massive sores in my nasal passages.

I take zyrtec for my allergies (dogs, dustmites, tree pollen, etc). I also use Nasonex spray.

I take all sorts of allergy meds, but I take a lot less now that I'm gluten-free. I was using my inhaler a lot, and I rarely have to anymore. I still have pet, dust, and mold allergies.

Watch out for generics. I found out that my Walgreen's version of Claritin isn't gluten-free, so I have to buy the name brand. It's reasonable at Costco.

      Thank you for the links to the articles.  Interesting reading. I'll be telling my brother in law because he has a lot of pain

      Oats naturally contain a protein called avenin, which is similar to the gluten proteins found in wheat, barley, and rye. While avenin is generally considered safe for most people with celiac disease, some individuals, around 5-10% of celiacs, may also have sensitivity to avenin, leading to symptoms similar to gluten exposure. You may fall into this category, and eliminating them is the best way to figure this out. Some people substitute gluten-free quinoa flakes for oats if they want a hot cereal substitute. If you are interested in summaries of scientific publications on the topic of oats and celiac disease, we have an entire category dedicated to it which is here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/oats-and-celiac-disease-are-they-gluten-free/
