After going from 24hr > 12hr the first couple days didnt work. But after that its amazing. Really has saved me this whole season. And I started taking it around mid-April.
Btw, which did you buy? Allegra or AllegraD? 12hr or 24hr?

Allegra in the AM, Benadryl before bed. Plus, Benadryl helps you sleep!

i have claritin, reactine, and aerius. reactine seems to do the trick at the moment, but nothing's ever definite. when my allergies get really irritating, i just use a nose spray and my symptoms seem to clear up afterwards.

i thought if you constantly take allergy pill, or couple days straight...it will no longer work since the symptom gets use to the medicine

Natural remedies including herbal stuff do work and their much safer and easier on your body compared to popping pills and constantly using nose sprays.
