Comparing Azelastine Nasal vs Cetirizine

For Allergic Rhinitis: My seasonal allergies are so severe that I’ve been hiding from society because people will think I have COVID. I’ve had the itchy throat for three months now. Puffy and tender spots around my nose. I get this way every spring. My cough keeps my husband up at night. My dr put me on a cocktail med. Allegra, Flonase, Azelastine. I tried it today for the first time. Two sprays in each nostril. When it trickled down the back of my throat the taste was so horrible I started throwing up. It was traumatizing. Also my food has tasted different all day. My taste is completely different. Is this normal? Even when I drink water it gives it a completely different and gross taste. I just want this out of my system like now!!

For Allergic Rhinitis: I've been using this azelastine for a few months. The bad taste has pretty much disappeared. Keep your head tilted forward for a few minutes as you do stuff and walk around. Unfortunately, it seems to only slightly work. But, slightly is better than nothing which is what I got from other nasal sprays.

For Allergic Rhinitis: I've been on this at 10mg for a few months to fight my hay fever. It has had some effect, my nose isn't running as frequently, but my eyes are watering and are itchy. If anything it has made my eyes worse. At 10mg it doesn't really do much.

For Allergic Rhinitis: Cured my persistent cough, made me drowsy, but also suffered from insomnia and made me feel depressed, wanted to cry at the slightest negative thought or comment, most unlike me. When I stopped taking pills cough recurred, depression subsided.
