Allergy Medications
Your Allergy Partners allergist will consider your complete medical history and test results to determine if allergy medications would be an effective component of your personalized treatment plan.
Common allergy medication treatments include decongestants and antihistamines, which help to reduce congestion, sneezing, runny nose, and itching. Another common form of treatment is nasal corticosteroids, which address inflammation in your nose. Other medicines work by blocking the chemicals responsible for producing an allergic response. Common treatments utilized include:
- Antihistamines – These can help reduce a runny nose, sneezing, and itching.
- Decongestants – This medication helps relieve nasal congestion caused by allergies.
- Leukotriene modifiers – These medications can help with both allergy and mild asthma symptoms.
- Nasal corticosteroids – These are effective in treating inflammation in the nose.
- Nasal antihistamines – These are effective in treating nasal congestion and runny nose.
- Immunotherapy (allergy shots) – Specific allergy shots are administered as a long-term treatment option that can help reduce or eliminate the need for other medications.
