What is the best over-the-counter allergy medicine to use?
2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Allergy medications: Unfortunately there is no "best" brand. Different patients respond better to one medication than to another. Loratadine, diphenhydramine, fexofenadine and certrizine are all effective.

Several: There are several OTC allergy medicines that can be used. Choosing the right one will depend upon the symptoms one is having.
