Right. Allegra does not make you sleepy.

Yes, also Benedryl helps with itchching, tingling, (breathing from allergic reactions), benedryl can make some people sleepy though. It works better for me than Allegra. I take 1/2 if I ever need it. Dr wants me to always have on hand, because I’m allergic to many things. It really helps when needed.

I haven't used it but it's great to know it's helping you.

Allegra , I think, is an antihistamine. That's why it helps itching and tingling. Bc of some meds I'm on, not supposed to take antihistamines ☹. So glad it helps those of you who are able to take it. 🥰💜🤗

I stumbled across an article that says Mast Cell Activation syndrome (MCAS) can cause fibromyalgia. Since I've always been allergic to "everything" I decided to see if that was my issue. The treatment is pretty simple: I started by taking an H1 antihistamine- Claritin (or you can use Allegra, Zyrtec, just Google it.) After 1 week my fibro symptoms were turned way down, my jaw stopped hurting and my headaches went away. Then I added in an H2 antihistamine (Pepcid AC) and started taking both twice a day. After three days I feel like a new person. My knees and shoulders stopped hurting, my energy is way up, back o normal. The only symptom I have left is a little stiffness in hips when standing.
