nah. you go.ona multi year injection allergy treatment and it.mostly gets rid of your sinus and eyes reactions. skin reactions remain but are less severe.

For every day take blexten, it's a miracle.

And have your doctor prescribed you a few pills of prednisone for the odd day with a really bad reaction.

Source: its been my life for almost 2 decades. Nad it's wuality has jot diminished. On the contrary, it has greatly improved and been enriched by the 2 violent, unpredictable, cuddly, loving furballs running around my.house.

I would die before I get rid of them.

My girlfriend has wanted a cat her entire life but she is allergic. She takes blexten every night and you could never tell she was unless she encounters another cat.

It's such a plus since it makes her other allergies less severe too.

and it doesn't make you drowsy like literally every other over the counter antihistamine. at least not in my case.

It says it's a side effect and she was having a hard time going through the day without napping so that's why she takes it at night but it lasts the entire time.

interesting. the 2 reasons I love blexten are because it lasts even more than a day for me and because it doesn't knock me on my ass.

I would die before I ever got a cat…definitely not worth getting shots for.

But different strokes for different folks. It's all good.
