Frequently Asked Questions
What causes seasonal allergies?
Seasonal allergies are caused by an overreaction of the immune system to airborne allergens like pollen, mold spores, and pet dander.
How do antihistamines work?
Antihistamines block the action of histamine, a chemical released by the body during an allergic reaction that causes symptoms like sneezing and itching.
How do nasal corticosteroids work?
Nasal corticosteroids reduce inflammation in the nasal passages, relieving allergy symptoms.
What are some tips for preventing seasonal allergies?
Tips include staying indoors during high pollen counts, keeping windows closed, using air conditioning, and showering after spending time outdoors.
How do decongestants work?
Decongestants shrink swollen nasal passages, relieving congestion.
What should I do if my seasonal allergies are severe or don't improve with treatment?
If your allergies are severe or don't improve with over-the-counter treatments, you should consult with a doctor or allergist.
