Benadryl Allergy and Sinus Headache Gelcaps —
I am a severe lifelong allergy sufferer who's pretty sure I singlehandedly been keeping benedryl in business. For me, the newer class of allergy meds just don't cut it like Benedryl does. I get some relief from other OTC & prescription meds, but I find that the sinus headache, itchy eyes, and runny nose are often not controlled by them. Which brings me to this Benedryl Allergy & Sinus Headache review. As mentioned earlier, the benedryl portion of this medication seems effective enough, however the portion of the medication meant to control the sinus headache and other symptoms left me disappointed and unable to take anything else for several hours. For lack of better terminology, it seemed to taunt & tease me with a glimmer of hope that it was going to work, but in the end it fell short. So much for my all-in-one pill. In the end chose to stick with just the regular benedryl with separate meds to treat my additional symptoms, ibuprofen liquigels (3) work best for me as far as OTC relief for sinus headache
