Not a good idea: People who are allergic to pollens (i.e., plant proteins) can be unpredictably allergic to herbal preparations (i.e., plant proteins). Use of herbal supplements by pollen allergic people is not a good idea; pharmaceutical allergy medications do not have any contaminants to which allergic people might react.

Herbal: Many will make claims but none are fda-approved and the benefit is in the eye of the beholder.
