There was a week or so that I was still miserable, but after that it was fine. I switched back to zytec when I got my BFP (because it was approved by my doctor) and it's been working fine since. </p> <p>You might also look into a prescription nasal spray if your main symptom is stuffiness. They've made a HUGE difference for me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-take-a-daily-allergy-medicine#post-1436111 Thu, 20 Feb 2014 10:55:08 +0000 Mrs. Chipmunk 1436111@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Switch, the brand won't suddenly make a difference. Eventually you may have to switch back and it may work again later </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-take-a-daily-allergy-medicine#post-1436104 Thu, 20 Feb 2014 10:53:31 +0000 bunnylove08 1436104@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>my friend went from zyrtec to claritin and so far it has worked for her. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-take-a-daily-allergy-medicine#post-1436009 Thu, 20 Feb 2014 10:24:19 +0000 Mamaof2 1436009@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have been on generic Zyrtec forever but I don't think its working anymore - I am waking up with daily headaches and stuffy!</p> <p>Should I try the "real" Zyrtec or switch to Claritin?</p> <p>WWYD? </p>
