"This is by far one of the most useless drugs I have taken to treat seasonal allergies. Not only didn’t it work, but it made me feel very sedated and dizzy, with a severe increase in anxiety. One thing to remember is that it’s basically the same as loratadine but at a huge price. I returned to my usual Reactine (cetirizine), and I feel much better! It works every time without any side effects. For better allergy control, I use cetirizine with Flonase nasal spray, and I have a complete remission of all my seasonal allergies, including my runny nose, itchy throat, sneezing, and watery eyes, and the effect lasts 24 hours."

"I like the medication, it does what it is supposed to do and is quick. However, it does not last 24 hours. I can only get 10-12 hours maximum. Three others in my household are using it, and they get the same results. So, in the evening, when the allergies come back full-blown, you have already taken the prescribed meds for 24 hours... what do you do?"

"I developed strong allergies several years ago after moving out of a house where a dog was staying. I put up with said allergies for 4 years. I'm not an advocate of Western medicine practices, but after all that time suffering, I decided to bite the bullet and take an antihistamine. Aerius has worked incredibly well for me. While dog dander and dust still tickle my nose and make me sneeze every once in a while, no allergic reaction takes place. This means that I might sneeze once, but I rarely get stuffed up, and my nose never runs for days on end. However, it's expensive, and I will be switching to a similar medicine."

"I developed blisters after I took Aerius. The blisters were on my palms, lips, and feet. The antihistamine did not take care of the itch either. Zero benefit, and had to see a doctor and a dermatologist for the symptoms. Very disappointed with Aerius."

"This drug is useless, and its advertising is offensive, using violence against women to promote the product."
