- It worked well for me too for a while. Right now, I'm taking Reactine from
- Pfizer. Tiny pills, rather expensive, but lasts forever. I use them combined
- with Tilade pump. Now I can stand being around dogs, cats, horses and other
- large furry mammals (!!? moose, bears, tigers, steve).
-
- Some friends reported it also worked wonders with plant and fungi allergies.
-
- It is available only by prescription in Canada, I don't know about the US.
- (They again, we could be guinea pigs again! yes, I'm allergic to those too,
- even the laboratory hairless ones)
