Fall Allergies: Types, Causes and Treatment
Many people associate allergies with spring bloom season, but fall brings a different set of allergens that can leave you sneezing, wheezing or rubbing your eyes. Knowing what fall allergy treatments to keep on hand can help you address allergies proactively and enjoy autumn more.
Types of Fall Allergies
Ragweed is a common late summer and fall allergy trigger that can cause runny noses, sneezing and itchy eyes. Mold allergies often act up in the fall due to moisture in leaf piles and other autumnal debris. Dust mites, pet dander and airborne irritants can also become increasingly difficult to deal with if you're spending more time inside and unable to air out your home.
Pollen and allergens that are typically associated with spring and early summer can also cause irritation in the fall. Tree pollen, weed pollen and late bloomers like goldenrod are all potential fall allergies.
Fall Allergy Symptoms
Fall allergy symptoms can range from mild and inconvenient to more serious issues for which you may want to seek medical attention. Sneezing, runny nose, watery and itchy eyes and an irritated throat are common symptoms of autumn allergies. Other symptoms can include coughing, postnasal drip, headaches, skin rash and shortness of breath.
Treatments for Fall Allergies
Popular allergy medications like Zyrtec y Claritin are antihistamines formulated to calm your immune response to allergens in your body. This can reduce the severity of your symptoms. Second-generation antihistamines of this type are also designed to reduce side effects related to drowsiness, which may make them preferable over other options if you take them during the day.
Other treatments for fall allergy symptoms include eye drops to help reduce redness and itching, nasal spray to help with congestion and equipment such as humidificadores, which can help keep airways moist and productive.
Seasonal Allergy Medicine
The most common outdoor seasonal allergens are tree pollen, weeds, and grass. The levels and types of pollen in the air vary by time of year, with tree pollen peaking in the early spring, grass pollen peaking around the height of summer, and weed pollen peaking around late summer and lasting well into autumn. When you talk to your doctor about your allergy symptoms, mention what time of year you experience these symptoms, as it may help narrow down the causes. He or she can give you more information about allergens and provide guidance about the best treatment options for your needs.
Dealing with seasonal allergies can be overwhelming at times, but it is possible to control your allergies – rather than letting them control you. When outdoor allergens are at their peak, watch the weather reports to find out if the pollen count is extra high. On those days, do your best to limit your time outdoors, and consider wearing a dust mask if you do have to venture outside. Keep your windows closed and consider using an air filter in your home that is equipped with a HEPA filter to keep out allergen particles.
Over The Counter Allergy Medicine
The best allergy medicine for you depends on a variety of factors. You will need to consider the specific allergy symptoms you are experiencing and what is triggering them. Then, select an over the counter allergy medicine that addresses those causes and symptoms. Not all allergy medications are created equal, and some are better suited to address certain allergy triggers and symptoms than others. For example, if you deal with both indoor and outdoor allergies, you should consider an allergy medication that contains cetirizine hydrochloride, since the ingredient is approved to treat both indoor and outdoor allergy symptoms. Your needs for the day also matter. If you have to give a big presentation, you're better off reaching for a non-drowsy allergy relief option such as a nasal spray rather than a first-generation antihistamine, such as Benadryl, which contains diphenhydramine and is known for causing drowsiness. If you aren't sure which allergy medicine is best for you, don't hesitate to talk to your doctor or pharmacist. He or she can offer you individualized advice and help you formulate a plan for controlling your allergy symptoms that works with - not against - your lifestyle.
Sinus Medicine & Relief
Many people who have allergies also deal with sinus congestion and pressure. This can be painful at times, but there's no need to suffer! CVS carries a wide selection of cold medicine for sinus pressure to help relieve your symptoms fast. Look for sinus medication that combines a pain reliever with a decongestant. Tylenol Sinus Congestion and Pain is a good choice and is available in a non-drowsy daytime formula. In addition, you may want to try a nighttime formula if sinus congestion and pain is getting in the way of a good night's sleep. If your nighttime symptoms are more closely aligned with allergies, such as itching, sneezing, and watery eyes, consider an antihistamine instead. Benadryl is a good choice because in addition to controlling your symptoms, it can make you feel drowsy and more susceptible to sleep.
Antihistamínicos
But what if you can't stay inside? That's where allergy medication comes in. Look for non-drowsy allergy medicine like Claritin Non-Drowsy so that you can stay alert while performing your daily activities. If you prefer not to take a pill, try an allergy nasal spray like Nasacort. Your body responds to allergens by releasing chemicals, and these chemicals then cause reactions in your body that result in the allergy symptoms you experience. A nasal spray for allergies typically targets multiple inflammatory chemicals, whereas antihistamines like Benadryl only target the histamine response. Because of this, some people may find nasal sprays to be a better choice for controlling their allergy symptoms. If you've tried antihistamines and found that they didn't work as well as you'd like, it may be worth picking up an allergy nasal spray. An additional benefit of nasal sprays is that most will not cause drowsiness. nasal strips are also an option.
Indoor Allergy Medicine
There are many sources of indoor allergens, but the biggest culprits tend to be dust, mold, and pet dander. Indoor allergens are not seasonal and can be bothersome at any time of the year, although many people find their indoor allergies to be the worst in winter because they spend more time indoors. The best way to deal with indoor allergies is to keep your home as free of allergens such as possible. Limit the amount of carpets, upholstered furniture, and drapes in your home, as these are difficult to remove allergens from. Try to avoid spending time in your basement or any other damp spaces where mold is common. Be sure to keep wet spaces like the bathroom dry, and clean up any water spills or damage promptly to prevent mold from growing in the dampness. A dehumidifier can further help to reduce excess moisture in your home.
Pet Allergy Relief
If you suspect that you are allergic to pets, it is best to talk to your doctor. He or she may recommend allergy testing to confirm whether you are allergic to pet dander or another allergen. If you are allergic to your pet's dander, there are steps you can take. While many people think pet allergies have to do with pet fur, what you are actually allergic to is your pet's dander, or the dead skin cells that get trapped in their fur. These skin cells contain proteins that cause an allergic reaction in some people. Finding out that you have an allergy to pets doesn't mean that you can't enjoy animals on occasion or that you won't be able to keep a pet of your own! If you know you're allergic to certain animals and don't yet have a pet of your own, consider getting a fish, hermit crab, iguana, or snake, as these are generally safe for allergy sufferers. If you already have a beloved pet, don't worry - chances are, you can still give your cat or dog a loving home without suffering needlessly yourself. Bathing your pet regularly can help to reduce the allergen count found in your pet's fur. You may also want to consider restricting your pet to certain areas of the house and making your bedroom a pet-free zone. After touching your pet, keep your hands away from your eyes and face until you've had a chance to wash them. When occasional symptoms occur, reach for OTC allergy relief like Claritin RediTabs.

How Does Allergy Medication Work?
Allergies occur when your immune system mistakenly reacts to harmless substances, including pollen or dust, releasing chemicals, such as histamine, to mount a defense. While histamine plays a crucial role in your immune system's response to bacteria and viruses, the inflammation it causes can lead to symptoms, such as hives and sneezing, when released in response to allergens.
Most allergy medicines are antihistamines, meaning they block the effects of histamine on your body. Others, such as Flonase, contain a corticosteroid. Because corticosteroids block inflammation, they help prevent the release of histamine and other chemicals involved in allergies, making them ideal for people with chronic conditions, such as seasonal allergies. Antihistamines, in comparison, are typically best for occasional use.
When Is the Best Time to Take Allergy Medication?
Allergy medications take time to work, so it's usually a good idea to take them as soon as you develop symptoms. Antihistamines generally take effect quickly, within about 15 to 30 minutes. However, some symptoms, such as congestion, may take a few hours to clear completely, depending on how soon you take the medicine.
Once an antihistamine starts to work, the effects generally last up to 24 hours, depending on the product. Nasal allergy sprays, on the other hand, often take a few days to work, so it's essential to use the medicine according to package instructions well in advance of any allergy symptoms.
Some allergy medicines can cause sedation, and taking these products at night is usually best. However, many nondrowsy allergy medications are available, such as CVS Health 24-hour nondrowsy allergy relief, so you can still treat your symptoms without impacting your ability to work.
Which Allergy Medicine Works Best?
The best allergy medicine to take typically depends on the type of allergies you experience. Nasal products, including Flonase, Astepro and NasalCrom, are usually best for chronic allergies that affect your respiratory system, such as hay fever. Many people take them daily for a few months over flowering season to avoid symptoms.
Antihistamínicos work much more quickly and are effective for non-respiratory allergies, such as hives or rashes. They're a great product to keep in the household if you don't experience allergies often but want the peace of mind of knowing you can treat symptoms if they do arise.
