Is it okay to take antihistamines for sneezing when you have pneumonia? it is amazing how much sneezing hurts right now!
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Should be ok: If a person takes antihistamines for allergy symptoms such as sneezing, then she can continue taking the antihistamines even if she has pneumonia (unless her doctor asks her to not use antihistamines).
