Fexofenadine / pseudoephedrine for Allergic Rhinitis "This medication is NOT recommended! I have severe allergies to the spring weather, and since nothing else was working for me, I decided to try this. At first, it was like magic, my allergies went away, no itchy eyes, no sore throat, I felt great! The side effects really hurt me, though. It was about two days after taking the medication that I suffered a 24-hour migraine along with flu-like symptoms, high fever, rashes, dizziness, confusion, racing heart, chills, anxiety, nausea, dry mouth, sleep problems, loss of appetite, and ringing in my ears. It has been the worst two days of my life thanks to this medication."

For Allergic Rhinitis "Took it around 6:30 am before leaving for work. Experienced terrible insomnia even though I took it early in the morning. Couldn't stay asleep more than three or four hours. Awful stomach pain and loss of appetite. Some itching. Weakness and dizziness when standing too quickly. Dry mouth, so I'm constantly drinking water. Unfortunately, the other OTC medicines didn't work as well as this product. I'm in a lose-lose situation."

Fexofenadine / pseudoephedrine for Allergic Rhinitis "When fall sets in, so do allergies where I live. After a trip to the doctor, I was prescribed Allegra D-12 Hour and found that I had the sinus pressure relieved within 2 1/2 - 3 hours. However, when drugs.com lists 'dizziness' as a side effect, they're not kidding. I had to get someone to take me home because I (personally) was too dizzy to even walk straight. So if this is prescribed to you, I would suggest taking it on a day 'off,' such as a weekend, or at night to discover how it affects you personally before you take it on a work day and find out the bad way."

Fexofenadine / pseudoephedrine for Allergic Rhinitis "This medication works great for allergies. My mom takes it, and she loves it. However, as soon as I take it, I start feeling all those crazy side effects: dizziness, nausea, pain everywhere, headaches, crying spells, etc. I personally won’t ever take it again because it is definitely NOT for me, but it is for people like my mom. So I don’t know. Maybe it just depends on your body because everyone is different."

Fexofenadine / pseudoephedrine for Allergic Rhinitis "Do NOT take this medicine. It should be illegal. I took it for 3 days, and all 3 days I felt nauseous, dizzy, unmotivated, and depressed. The worst part is I haven’t slept more than 2-3 hours a night. This medication will disrupt your life. I usually take Zyrtec D but decided to try Allegra out - my allergies have gotten exponentially worse on it. I have had severe sinus pressure, a cough, and headaches in addition to all the other symptoms."
