Our Allergy Relief Solutions

Managing allergy and hay fever symptoms requires a combination of medications and lifestyle adjustments. At Warners Bay Pharmacy, we offer a variety of products and strategies to reduce symptoms and help you breathe easier.

Antihistamines: Antihistamines are the most common treatment for allergies, helping to block histamine, the substance that causes allergy symptoms. We offer a variety of antihistamine tablets, liquids and nasal sprays that can help alleviate sneezing, runny noses, and itching.
Nasal Sprays: Nasal sprays can be effective for reducing congestion and inflammation in the nasal passages. We offer both steroid nasal sprays, which reduce inflammation, and decongestant sprays to clear nasal passages, helping you breathe more freely.
Eye Drops: Allergy symptoms often affect the eyes, causing itching, redness, and watering. We offer eye drops specifically designed to relieve these symptoms and reduce inflammation around the eyes.
Decongestants: Decongestants can help clear blocked nasal passages, providing relief from stuffiness and sinus pressure. These medications can be used in combination with other treatments for maximum effect.
Allergy Relief for Children: Allergy symptoms can be especially difficult for children to manage. We provide safe, child-friendly allergy relief options, including liquid antihistamines and nasal sprays, to help reduce discomfort and prevent allergic reactions.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between hay fever and other allergies?
Hay fever, or allergic rhinitis, is a type of allergy that specifically affects the nose and eyes, often triggered by pollen, dust, or pet dander. It is characterised by sneezing, nasal congestion, itchy eyes, and a runny nose. Other allergies, such as food allergies or insect sting allergies, cause different symptoms and may affect other parts of the body, such as the skin, throat, or digestive system. Hay fever is more common in certain seasons when pollen counts are high, while other allergies may occur year-round or as a response to specific triggers.
Can allergies be cured?
Currently, there is no permanent cure for allergies, but they can be effectively managed with the right treatments. Medications such as antihistamines, nasal sprays, and eye drops help control symptoms, and allergen avoidance strategies can reduce exposure to triggers. Immunotherapy, or allergy shots, may offer long-term relief for some individuals, but these treatments take time and should be discussed with an allergist. At Warners Bay Pharmacy, we can provide ongoing support to help you manage and minimise the impact of allergies on your daily life.
What can I do to minimise exposure to allergens?
Minimising exposure to allergens is crucial for managing hay fever and other allergies. Key strategies include keeping windows closed during high pollen seasons, using air purifiers in your home, and cleaning your home regularly to reduce dust mites and pet dander. Wearing sunglasses outdoors can protect your eyes from pollen, and washing your hands and face after being outside can reduce the spread of allergens. Additionally, using nasal filters or wearing a mask during activities like mowing the lawn can help prevent inhaling allergens.
