Asthma – Diagnosis & Treatments

Allergy Drugs

Since allergies are one of the main risk factors for asthma, many allergy drugs can help with your symptoms. For instance, nasal steroids would alleviate some allergy signs and reduce the risk of asthma triggers. Your doctor would also suggest an allergy shot to decrease the reaction of your body to allergens in the environment in the long run. In more advanced cases, oral antihistamines like fexofenadine, loratadine, cetirizine, and diphenhydramine would be prescribed. [7]
