Advantages: Non drowsy, effective

Disadvantages: Expensive

I first started suffering with hayfever when I was 16, about 12 years ago now. So that's 12 years of suffering through May and June, sniff sniff. When I first got my hayfever I struggled on, determined not to let it bother me. Anyone who suffers this time of the year will realise that's not the sensible option. So i took myself off to the doctors to get some help. The doctor suggested a few solutions from herbal remedies, to local honey, to drugs. Tried a few of the natural options but needed something stronger. So I went for the drugs. Tried a few different options, some worked, but made me drowsy and made my head fuzzy. Some didn't do this, but didn't stop my hayfever. Benadryl are the best I have found out there!

Have been taking these for quite a few years now. My hayfever still bothers me but it's not anywhere near as intense as it would be. I get no side effects from the tablets and am very happy with them.

They are also helpful for dust allergies, pet allergies and skin allergies. So it's not just hayfever. I tend to take 3 tablets a day when my hayfever is at its worst. They are supposed to last eight hours but I usually find after about six my symptoms are coming back.

There are plenty of warnings that come with these tablets, but will not go into these here, you can check with your doctor if your unsure or just read the packet.

Each packet contains 24 capsules. Which at three a day means they will last you 8 days. The sticker on my packet says £7.55, which I think is quite expensive really. So that's just under a pound a day. I get these on prescription, and get 4 packets at a time for the price of a prescription, which is far better value. So you might want to try that approach.

Overall these are excellent for me personally. I imagine different things work for different people, but if you have never tried these and do suffer from hayfever, you should give them a try!

Summary: Great for hayfever release

I'm not sure what the active ingredient in Benadryl is but if it's cetrizine you can get Dr Reddys anti-histamines for just over a pound a week in Superdrug and Zirtek from Wilkos for about the same.

I'm lucky in the sense that I don't suffer from hayfever - but if I ever do, i'll know what to take! :)
