Allergy Season Has Officially Started

For my contribution to this week's WWFM, I would like to share with you my one and only working medication for allergies. My son and I both have severe reactions to grasses, pollen, pet dander; you name it and we will probably sneeze at it.

We've both tried everything from Claritin to Zyrtec and nothing has helped. Nothing, that is, until my mom (a severe hay fever sufferer) came across WalMart's Equate brand of Chlortabs. We have been using these for a little over a year for everything including reactions to pet dander and they have yet to fail! Of course we always use our other secret weapon, PRAYER.

Equate Chlortabs from WalMart. That's what works for me! For more WWFM tips check out Shannon's blog at Rocks In My Dryer!

That'd be great, but can you believe I'm probably allergic to the active ingredient in Chlortabs?

I tried a generic brand of Chlortrimi-something. Imagine my distress when my tongue swelled and I got so hyper I couldn't shut up. I was reluctant to take Benadryl to counteract the reaction. Good thing I had only taken half a half a dose knowing I was trying a new medicine. Must have been God.

Wow, I have to check these out. "Allergy Season" for me is forever...I have perennial rhinitis. If it floats in the air, it makes me sneeze.
One question...does this stuff make you drowsy?

THANK YOU! I have a DH, 2 sons, 1 daughter and a dog with serious allergies.... Someone has suggested the WalMart's Equate brand of Chlortabs but for the life of me I couldn't remember what the name was.... Thank YOU, Thank YOU!

PS~ Yes even the dog is allergic LOL....
