The cortisone sprays are completely different. They take a few days to
become effective, but then it's like the pollen just disappeared - no
sneezing, no congestion. It's really been like magic for me since I found
out about them.


Are these all still prescription meds?

NasalCrom is OTC, and has worked as well or better than the cortisone sprays
for me.

Yes. Depending on how good a relationship you have with your doctor, you
may be able to call and tell the nurse that you would like to try one of
them, and since there is very little to go wrong, they may call you in a
script. You really have to try one if you have any significant allergies.
They take up to 2 weeks to become fully effective.
