What is good otc antihistamine to take for someone have asthma..i take clarity sometimes but it makes me drowsy and sleepy..is allegra (fexofenadine) better?

Yes: Allegra has little or no sedating effects. However any AH can be taken with asthma and control of nasal symptoms may potentially improve asthma as well.
