Reply #17: beconase (spelling?) also worked well for me [View All]

[amazona]

I no longer need to use a steroid inhaler because I made radical changes in my life to severely reduce exposure to my allergens -- the main trigger being cat dander, with another trigger being dust mites. However, it took me many years to settle down from being severely over-exposed to the cats, and I found the Beconase (if I remember the name correctly) to be very helpful. I'm assuming Flonase is much the same thing. If so, you should be very pleased.

Nowadays, when I am exposed to cats or know I am going to be exposed to cats, I can handle it by taking on Claritin, which is not much help to you, since you already report a problem with Claritin.
