Allegra vs. Benadryl

Question

Is Allegra just as good for dealing with allergic reactions as Benadryl?

Answer 1

I have found that nothing works better with less side effects then benadryl! Its the best ever and works like a charm. But it does make you dopey. There is non drowsy benadryl that I also use and it works good too.

I took allegra for a while but it made my heart race and gave me dry mouth so I didn't really like it.

I guess take both and see wich one you like best or if there is no problem with the one you currently use, stick with that one.

Answer 2

Allegra doesnt make you drowsy like benadryl does, but the only way to know if it will work on you is to try it.  Its like Claritin is non drowsy but doesnt work on me.
