The Nazonex bee cartoon ad says it's sooo hard to avoid allergens,......?

Question

yet the only two shown on the ad are a woman shaking out a rug and a man with a cat on his desk.
First of all, who wouldn't sneeze with rug dust going up their nose? It's a natural response. Wear a mask when you shake out a rug.
As far as the cat goes - don't yell at me, I like cats - but why does the guy have a cat if he's alergic? I'm alergic so I don't have a cat. Some friends of mine have cats & it doesn't bother me. But then these friends are a bit OCD on cleaning and their cats don't go outside. If I do go somewhere where there is a cat that bothers me, I take a benadryl instead of a Nazonex every fraking day.
I realize some people have many other allergies that are much harder to avoid. I empathize. It seems however the side effects listed on the ad are the same as what the Rx is supposed to prevent.
I think med schools should teach how to heal a messed up immune system rather than what drug to mask the symptoms.

What do you do other than Rx to help allergies?

Answer 1

i take rinochort (however u spell it) and it helps alot. but yesterday i ran out and my mom has to run out to the pharmacy...but shes been to busy. im dieing! every four minutes i sneeze and i have a headache once u find out a way to prevent this let me no!

i moved into a new room, it has windows and vent and hardwood florr, i dust every other day b/c mom tells me two and man that REALLY helped...it helped with sneezing, and sleeping mainly.

A very high quality air cleaner...not the cheap-o kind you get in department stores. You can't have an allergic reaction to stuff in the air...if it isn't in the air. Ours has a HEPA filter surrounding a drum filled with 16 pounds of charcoal. It has a huge fan that draws the air through both and completely turns over the air in our huge great room 4 times an hour. Check out allergy relief stores and websites for that level of quality air cleaner. They aren't cheap ($150-$350), but they work. The allergy relief stores have many other products, too, that could be useful depending on your particular allergy problem.

Answer 3

Well I usually do try to avoid allergens. I just mowed the yard a couple of days ago and I am still having problems, so maybe next time let my husband mow the yard. I do better too if I keep the house dusted. I also have a very hairy dog that likes to sleep at the head of the bed but I move him down so he won't be right in my face.

Answer 4

I hate that stupid bee.
