Treatment of Allergies

If you can't avoid triggers, or if avoiding them doesn't help your symptoms, talk to your health care provider about treatment. A variety of medications are available to treat allergies. These include antihistamines and decongestants, either alone or in combination. Nasal sprays, including nasal steroids and cromolyn sodium, also are effective. Allergy shots can provide long-term relief.
