Help! I need your best hayfever remedies

2 replies

itsybitsyspider00 · 20/06/2026 00:23

Given I’m almost suffocating in tissues thanks to my continuous runny nose, please give me your best hayfever tips and treatments?

Over the years I have tried Loratadine, Cetirizine, Fexofenadine and Acrivastine (this was the most effective but have taken 5 tablets today instead of the recommended 1 and I’m still drowning in tissues). Also previously had the Kenalog injection which helped a bit, but think I’ve missed the boat for that this year. I’ve tried various nasal sprays, Vaseline on the nose trick and those hayfever wipes, and already avoid drying my clothes outside and having the windows open too much.

Someone please tell me I’ve missed a very obvious but very effective remedy?

What dose of Fexofenidine have you tried? You can get a 180 prescription. Beconase is magic for me plus a steam mug with olbas oil. I need allergy eye drops too.

Hycosan allergy eye drops
Momethasone nasal spray
Fexofenadine 180x4 daily. (as directed by my GP).

My eyes are still pretty fucked and I have hives everywhere, but the nasal phelghm stuff is so much better.

Am discussing montelukast with GP.
