Doctor's reminder: It is recommended to follow the doctor's advice for a long time
I saw that some netizens regarded loratadine as a "life-saving artifact all year round". Dr. Xu Haibo of the Third Hospital of Hangzhou reminded: "Loratadine is an antihistamine and receptor antagonist after all, and the common side effect is drowsiness, so we generally recommend taking it before going to bed at night." Be cautious for patients with underlying heart conditions and those who drive, especially if antihistamines are used while drinking alcohol to aggravate cognitive and psychomotor disorders!"
Doctor Xu Haibo said that allergic rhinitis is generally divided into seasonal allergic rhinitis and perennial allergic rhinitis, "perennial allergy treatment we mainly use topical drugs and nasal sprays, and when the attack is more severe, for example, at the turn of the season, it will be recommended to take loratadine for a period of time, the time is 2-4 weeks, and after 2 weeks, allergic rhinitis will generally get better slowly, and when it gets better, it is necessary to slowly stop the medicine and turn it into local medicine (nasal spray)." ”
Zhang Yijin, deputy chief physician of the Department of Dermatology of the Third People's Hospital of Hangzhou, suggested that the allergens should be shielded first and try not to touch pollen and catkins. For example, you can wear a mask and scarf when you go out, and try to dress as tightly as possible. In case catkins and the like fall on the skin, try not to rub or scratch them, and you can wash them off with water. In addition, 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. is the time when catkins are high, and patients with allergies should try to avoid going out during this time. You can choose to travel earlier, later, or after the rain.
Zhang Yijin said that it is safer to consult a doctor for a longer period of time.
