If you haven't gotten the relief you want from your current allergy medicine, there's a new drug on the market that might be worth talking with your doctor about.  It's called Xyzal® (generic name: levocetirizine dihydrochloride) and it's an antihistamine already used in more...

    I was taking Xyzal last April when I ended up in the hospital. My former doctor gave it to me for allergies. I took 1 pill when I went to bed on april 20th and had really bad nightmares and was up all night I woke up the next morning and started hearing music. I took another pill on april 21st when I went to bed and had hallucinations all night and did not sleep. The morning came and I was seeing people that werent there and hearing music. Wednesday came and it got worse. I had hallucinations for 5 days when I only took 2 pills. I ended up in the ER on that Friday and the doctors determined that it was the medication. Not getting over this horrific experience I am seeing a phychiarist who gave me Zoloft which has helped me greatly. This medication Xyzal in my opinion should not be given out

An allergy is the immune system's over-reaction to a normally harmless substance called an allergen.
