What Causes Allergic Rhinitis?

Hi....I’ve been dealing with constant heavy runny nose, sneezing and watery eyes. I’ve taken Zyrtec and Sudafed. Sometimes it even makes me lightheaded and dizzy to the point of having to take Meclizine. Its been going on for months and only get relief a few days a month. Do you have any idea what could be causing this?

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

You should take tab Cetrizine as Zyrtec and Montelukast for allergic rhinitis. To avoid side effect as dizzy, you may use steroid nasal spray as Fluticasone. As these are prescription drugs please contact your local doctor he will prescribe these.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
