    whats cheapest hayfever medicine and where from?

    Boots were doing BOGOF last weekend on their own branded tablets which are the same as Clarytin.

    If you don't use that, we have worked out that it is cheaper to get a prescription from the doctor as a months supply of Zirtec on prescription is £6.40 which is considerably less than buying it over the counter. If you can persuade the doc to put 3x on the prescription, it is even cheaper.

    I don't make a habit of lying. Why would you suggest otherwise?

    I am offended by your comment.

    I always try to help people on these MSE boards. I have been a registered member of this site for a long time and hope that I have gained a reputation for honesty and helping others.

    I am only trying to help other Hayfever sufferers. I've found something that works, yet doesn't cause drowsiness.

    Why don't you try it yourself and see if it helps your symptoms?

    what do you have to do with it?

    I don't get hayfever, but hubby does really badly.

    I've heard that putting a smear of vaseline under your nose helps stop the pollen getting in (and hey it can't look that bad esp if your eyes are all sore and red - who will notice!)

    I got some relief from nasal symptoms by putting vaseline in my nose, but it obviously didn't help with itchy eyes.
    May all your dots fall silently to the ground.

    Is that a jar up each nostril ?:rotfl:

    last weekend my daughter started suffering with hayfever and couldn't wear her contact lenses, her glasses were away having new lenses fitted and she was really fed up, her sight is pretty bad,
    so I bought her nasaleze (they sell it in boots now £5.65) and it has helped so much,
    this weekend she is miles better and says to say
    Thank-you very much for the tip nile :T

    I suffer quite strong hayfever symptoms so I thought I would give Nasaleze a go and whilst it's not a miracle cure it certainly has help me through the last couple of weeks. I had to continue using my tablets as well although the use of eye drops and other hayfever products has now ceased.

    We went to a wedding on Saturday which was outdoors, I used my tablet and Nasaleze and they lasted until around 11pm before I had to grab for the nasal spray. :j

    One word of warning though, snort it carefully ! The first few goes nearly blew the back out of my throat :rotfl:
