What is hay fever?
Hay fever (allergic rhinitis) is an allergic reaction to pollen from grass, trees, or weeds. It causes sneezing, itchy and watery eyes, a runny nose, and congestion.
-
What treatments are available for hay fever?
Treatment options include antihistamines, nasal corticosteroid sprays, antihistamine eye drops, and combination treatments. Our pharmacists will recommend the most suitable option for your symptoms.
-
Are antihistamines available on prescription?
Yes. Prescription antihistamines are often stronger and longer-acting than over-the-counter options, and may be more effective for moderate to severe hay fever.
-
Can hay fever treatments be taken every day?
Yes. Many hay fever treatments are designed for daily use throughout the pollen season. Nasal sprays in particular work best when used regularly rather than just when symptoms flare.
-
Do hay fever treatments cause drowsiness?
Older antihistamines can cause drowsiness, but modern antihistamines are designed to be non-drowsy. Your pharmacist will advise on the most appropriate option for you.
