Gerd, dog/grass/dust allergy, post nasal drip. chronic barking cough. which treatments to use and what is okay for long term use. claritind long term?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Allergy comorbidity: An antihistamine/decongestant alone will not be adequate to control. There are several short and long term treatment possibilities. You need to see a board certified allergist.
