Brief Answer: No, it will not give much relief. Detailed Answer: Hi Thanks for writing in. As per your history you are having allergic rhinitis & drug that you are taking is taken prophylactically before symptoms appear but you already have developed symptoms.In that case this drug won't give much relief. In this case you may take combination of anti-histamine & anti allergic drug like phenylephrine & levo-cetrizine combination. This will give you better relief. Also try to avoid contact with allergen. Visit ENT specialist for better diagnosis & treatment plan. Hope I answered your query. Regards Dr.Neha Sumra
