Buying Antihistamine over the counter

Does anyone here know of any decent antihistamines here in DE that you can buy over the counter?

Thanks
Neil

The only antihistamine tablets that have ever worked reasonably well for me are Zyrtec / Zyrtec P (active ingredient: cetirizine).

hiya,

zyrtec and reactine from pfizer worked well for me...

Zyrtec really works well for me...been on it long term (bad allergies) NO side effects!

No sleepiness etc.

Best regards, Chris

Thanks for that info, sounds like Zyrtec is one to try, is it over the counter, or prescrition?

Cheers
Neil

You are in luck - just over the last month of so it has become available over the counter...!!

whoa, cool, I'll see if the local chemist knows that yet then.

Thanks

I've been buying Zyrtec over the counter for years.

If you are using it for a remedy to hay fever, then the very best I have ever used, ( over 20 years a sufferer ) is VIVIDRIN, obtainable over the counter here in Germany in tablet form.. Available also in nasal spray form, also eye drops. Absolutely 100% effective.

Raffles.

I hope you're not allergic to your new house already!

it's very common here and not new at all. Even in the smallest pharmacy they will know it

Managed to get the generic form of Zyrtec on friday, so will see how things go. Thanks for all the advice.

I don't think it is the house I am allergic to Bombi, as I had the same problem in my old house, it's probably the bed!
