drowsy...
it is going to get warm here shortly and the pollen is not far to follow.
so i decided to be proactive and start on the allergy medicine preemptively. my 8 yo daughter has been on the zyrtec off and on since she was about 5 and it really made a remarkable difference in her seasonal allergies. since it is now available over-the-counter and it was on sale i decided to use it than the regular alavert/claritin that i normally use.
i've made two discoveries.
- zyrtec is a very strong and effictive antihistimine
- zyrtec is a very strong and effictive antihistimine that makes me terribly drowsy.
seriously...it is worse than the benadryl. if you plan on using it definitely take it at night. and give yourself some extra time in the morning so you can drag your sleepy ass out of bed and into a cold shower to wake yourself up.
