Each person differs: The age of a person, severity of symptoms, ability to alter exposures and environment are important considerations. Most antihistamines have at least some sedating ("sleepiness") properties. Interference with alertness can be especially dangerous when doing tasks that require full alertness - at work or driving. They can also interfere with school. Consult a doc to discuss the best approach for u.
