Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
Hay fever can be only prevented and controlled but it is not possible to get rid if it completely.
You can start taking Tablet. Montelukast with Levicetrizine combination once a day 15 days prior to the season and continue it for 2 to 3 months as desired. Along with it, you can use nasal corticosteroid sprays and decongestants to relieve nasal and throat symptoms. Oral corticosteroids like Prednisoe can be taken for acute conditions and can be stopped by tapering the dose.
Best treatment for hay fever is to avoid substances that cause allergic reactions.
Hope the information provided would be useful.
All the best and wish you good health.
