HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
The symptoms of sneezing and other nasal symptoms are in keeping with allergic rhinosinusitis which is inflammation of the nose and sinus passages.
It would be in response to particular allergens, if your exposure to these can be reduced or eliminated, it would help reduce your symptoms.
In terms of the piriton, which is an anti histamine, you can continue to use it for as long as needed.
There are also non drowsy anti histamines available.
I hope this helps
