In 1992 in El Paso, TX a randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled study of subjects (n=130) with allergic rhinitis in 1992-1993 was conducted. The average IgE level of the placebo treated subjects remained essentially flat, while the average IgE level for active treated subjects was reduced significantly from baseline to Day 30.7 In 1993 in El Paso, TX, valid subjects (n=66) returned a second set of symptom diaries which they had completed for days 365 to 395 (the same period, one year after the first set of symptom diaries). The active group had mean symptom scores showing statistically significant decreases from 1992 to 1993. The placebo group had increased symptoms in 1993. (The relevant pollen counts at the study site in 1993 were much higher than in 1992, leading to expectation of higher symptoms.)7

Antihistamines As the name indicates, an antihistamine counters the effects of histamine, which is released by the mast cells in the body''s tissues and contributes to allergy symptoms. For many years, antihistamines have proven useful in relieving sneezing and itching in the nose, throat, and eyes and in reducing nasal swelling and drainage. Many people who take antihistamines experience some distressing side effects: drowsiness and loss of alertness and coordination. In children, such reactions can be misinterpreted as behavior problems. During the last few years, however, antihistamines that cause fewer of these side effects have become available by prescription. These new nonsedating antihistamines are as effective as other antihistamines in preventing histamine-induced symptoms, but do so without causing sleepiness.

A new HAY FEVER breakthrough clinically proven to reduce allergy symptoms and antihistamine use. How long were symptoms reduced? Studies showed a one-year reduction. How long? Yes, one year! this medication is a lozenge taken twice daily for 21 days. this medication is non-drowsy, natural and available without a prescription. this medication is a 21 day treatment. this medication users report reductions in symptoms one year after completing the treatment without taking additional this medication. How long? Yes one year, compared to 24-hour antihistamines it''s much longer lasting. Patients known to have seasonal allergy were examined in clinical studies in five U.S. states by qualified medical doctors. Each patient was given either the real this medication or a placebo (a dummy treatment). Nobody knew who got what. Patients recorded in symptons diaries how bad their symptoms were during and after the treatment. About one year later, patients completed a second diary. 64% of the group of patients receiving this medication recorded less sneezing, runny nose and nasal congestion one year after completing the treatment in a clinical study. This compares to 35% of the placebo group.
