I've been quite bad the last couple of days...

 

and fro the shops - hayfever tablets cost a bomb - and with prescription charges being so high - it's not much better from your GP!!

 

so...

 

I just bought a supply to last the whole summer from an online generic supplier (perfecly legit. and above board) for a FRACTION of the price.

 

anyway - for anyone affected/interested - all the info is here:

if you want non-drowsy - look for Loratadine

 

if you're happy to risk drowsiness - look for Cetirizine dihydrocholride

 

hope this helps,

 

(ahhhhhhhhhchooooooo!!!!)

You can get an intriguing device from Lloyds Chemist which helps desensitise the nasal passages.

 

**Here**

.

 

Can be used in conjunction with hay fever medicines.

Egluntine,

 

That device looks good, I'll have to check it out. I don't suffer normally but have had a permanent stuffy, irritated nose this summer and can't take any medicines

 

I've sneezed so much that achhooo is one my son's first words

[lisaroo2]

Ooooh you learn something everyday! I suffer with hayfever and take the ceterizne stuff as I was told that this was better for asthma sufferers.

Why not give New Era hayfever tablets a go. I have asthma and hayfever as well but these are fantastic and really work.

I tried the local honey theory and have been having local honey on toast for breakfast and it seems to be working! It could be my imagination but I haven't had to take my usual piriton so far, touch wood!

[lisaroo2]

Thanks Anne. Going into town tomorrow so will have a look for them.

[Phonix]

I've tried a few alternative therapies - to no avail... on a day with bulging red eyes and streaming nose - I need REAL DRUGS!!

I haven't been able to cope with just homeopathic remedies either - I have to take Loratadine all year round and increase the dose at hay-fever time.

 

I have a Pre-payment thing to cover the cost of my prescriptions - do your online prices beat that method of paying Phil?

 

Sorry - I'll go and look at the link.........

 

Quote - Pack Price: 39p/30 tablets Delivery Price: £2.95 Min order: N/A Price inc. delivery: One pack £3.34, six packs 88p/pack (£5.29 in total)

 

That would work out quite a bit cheaper I'll have to look at the cost of Statins and Beconase nasal spray as well to see how it all works out...............

[abwsco]

What a shame that the homeopathic stuff doesn't work for you Lesley and Phil

[abwsco]

Thanks Anne. Going into town tomorrow so will have a look for them.

 

Lisa, Boots should have them. Let me know if they work for you as they have to everyone I've recommended them to who's not tried them. I sometimes buy the Junior version if they're cheaper -lol

I try every so often - through the winter months - to change over....

 

 

The homeopathic remedies work for Jazz though - she has a grass pollen allergy and takes the New Era Tissue Salts

I'm quite happy with the hard drugs - does the job!

Devon & I have both had it this year,although we have never suffered before.

I am afraid we are guilty of pinching Cleos prescription Ceterizine, which is working out for us.

 

Poor Cleo is really suffering - its her eyes mostly which are all red,itchy & puffed up.

The eye drops she has work to some degree, but this year things have been really bad for her

Thank you Phil!

[MedusA]

Thanks for the link, Phil.

 

I live on Beconase year round for my allergic rhinitis, so if I bought in bulk, it will definitely save me money.

 

Unfortunately the antihisamine I'm on is an extra-strong one (Fexofenadine) and doesn't seem to be listed.

[BarbaraJ]

i ordered 3 packs of 30 tablets, spray and some other tabs lol hubby said you will pobably get some japanese import rubbish

i tried homeopathic tabs once , dont cut it for me, last night i woke 3 times rubbing my eyes likemad in my sleep with the windows shut, must change the pillowcase! that was with sparys tabs and eye drops!!

[SarahJo]

Ooh spooky - Bens teachers have just been nagging about his hayfever, as it is so bad at the moment. Unfortunately he cannot take anymore meds than he is on - so we have to try and beat the pollen.

 

He is on Loratidine and a steroid nasal spray - but other things to consider are (apparently) - washing hair at night, to remove any pollen, and do not hang out washing 1st thing and late afternoon, pollen "falls" at these times and is more likely to then be on clothes/bedding etc.

 

Must admit I do not really suffer - but my eyes have been really grainy recently and I have been sneezey - so it must be bad.

My son and i have both got hayfever we have been using the nasal spray from chemist direct and it hasn't worked even though it says it is the same as Beconase. I went to Boots today and bought the Beconase spray we have both used it this afternoon and at last are free from Hayfever symptoms for a few hours. I can't understand why the chemist direct spray didn't work for us, we always use Beconase but it is so expensive i thought I would try the cheaper alternative........

[Tiggy]

it is a really bad year for hayfever sufferers, I've had half of Kidderminster in to see me this week all saying that their normal treatment isn't working so I been prescribing really strong stuff even steroids for some people, poor kids taking GCSEs.

The drug may be the same but you have to consider the concentration and also with sprays the size of the droplets that are produced may be different in different products and the size of the droplets affects how far into your nose the droplets reach, so the cheaper product may be weaker and may also not be reaching the right place.

Thanks Phil, I've just ordered 4 packs with ceterizne in it, enough for the worst of the summer anyway for Boyfriend and myself it only cost £4.51 in total!

 

Even if I bought the cheap Boots ones at just under £1 a go and that's just enough for 1 week! So I've got enough for roughly 8 weeks and would only get 4 weeks at the boots price, so I make that 1/2 price and hopefully these tablets will be better quality!

 

thanks again
