reaction, to relieve your nasal allergy symptoms
Decongestant
Relieves nasal and sinus congestion
Leukotriene inhibitors
Block the effects of leukotrienes, inflammatory chemicals also released by your
immune system during an allergic reaction, to relieve your nasal allergy symptoms
Cromolyn sodium

It’s important to consult with your doctor before choosing the nasal allergy medication
that is right for you.

Talk with your doctor if you have a history of eye problems or experience a change
in vision.
