It’s always best to consult with your primary care physician for direction in creating the best treatment approach to seasonal allergies. Zyrtec is certainly an excellent antihistamine that generally does not cause sedation. Your doctor can tell you if you may also benefit from adding additional elements to your treatment program such as a nasal steroid spray, which is also now being offered as an over-the-counter choice.
