Treatment Of Indoor Allergies

The best thing you can do is remove the allergen from your environment (see Prevention). A number of drugs can be used to treat hay fever, eye symptoms and asthma.

Counter medications antihistamines such as diphenhydramine (Benadryl) by mouth reduces itching and watery eyes. Caution - these medications may make you too sleepy to drive or operate machinery safely. They can interfere with concentration or learning of children in school. They should be used for a few days.

If your symptoms do not improve, your doctor may prescribe one or more of the drug. Drugs do not cure allergies, but to relieve symptoms.
