I've been using fexofenadine for about three years now since I had a bad case of bronchitis that dragged on for a while. Whenever I try to stop taking it, like my doctor suggested, I end up with this crazy itching all over. The doctor's advice was to take it only if the itching starts. I'm really curious if it's safe to continue taking fexofenadine this way, and Im also wondering if there are any other methods or alternatives I should consider. What do you think?

I've been dealing with this really annoying irritation in my nose every morning for about a year now. It's like I keep sneezing until I eat breakfast. And, if its cold outside, this goes on for a couple of days. I just found out last night from my blood test that I have Eosinophilia. Its got me a bit concerned. How bad does it seem from the report? Also, are there certain foods I should steer clear of? And would you recommend any home remedies that might help?

I'm on levocetirizine at night, and it's making me feel drowsy and weak throughout the day. Is this a normal side effect I should be worried about? My doctor prescribed it, but I'm curious if this is typical.

yes it should be common

I've been using mometasone nasal spray, but I think I didn't use it correctly because now I'm experiencing some side effects. I'm getting rash, itching, and swelling on my face and around my throat, nose, and even my tongue. My upper teeth are feeling weird too. Plus, I'm feeling dizzy and have a headache. What do you think might be going on, and what should I do?
