Best over the counter medication for someone with high blood pressure who is allergic to dust and ragweed?
My husband recently visited an allergist and discovered he is very allergic to dust mites and outdoor weeds. He received a sample of Nasacort and used it all up; it didn’t totally cure his symptoms but definitely improved them a bit. When we took his prescription in to Walgreen’s to have it filled, it was nearly after our insurance discount – not in our budget. My husband has high blood pressure and controls it with medication; that being said, can anyone recommend something that may be effective for his allergies that we can purchase over the counter? Thank you for your time.

Hi,
Any of the over the counter allergy medicines, such as generic benadryl or claritin may help. None of these will elevate his blood pressure, with HPB you mainly have to watch cold medications.

try ABANA from Himalaya laboratoris This medicine may be ayurvedic medicine
Regarding allergy medication, make sure that before he buys anything over the counter to consult with the pharmacist because some high blood pressure medication do not interact well with allergy medications and can cause his pressure to go up even higher. Also, your pharmacist may be able to suggest something inexpensive that he can take in conjunction with his pressure meds.
