Guest guest Posted September 2, 2008 Report Share Posted September 2, 2008 My five year old is suffering from seasonal allergies (fall elm and mold, presumably). He is itchy all over, particularly his eyes, has dark circles under the eyes, and is sneezing. I have been doing a natural antihistamine prescribed by a N.D., but am considering going to a stronger prescription-only drug. Any possible side effects or objections? I'm considering pediatric Claritin or Zyrtec. Thanks, Yerly Austin, TX Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 2, 2008 Report Share Posted September 2, 2008 I recommend zyrtec. It works better for everyone in my family than claritin.

Guest guest Posted September 2, 2008 Report Share Posted September 2, 2008 For my money I'd rather do homeopathy any day. It's worked wonders on my allergies and is addressing all my other health issues at one whack. Wouldn't dream of doing it any other way now that I'm going this way. You have to go to someone really good though! We see Dr. Luc de Schepper. He is in S. California but we only need to go once a year, and he's in a very beautiful place to visit. Good luck!
