I'm noticing that my eosinophil levels are pretty high, and I seem to be really allergic to dust and cold weather. It's like clockwork, every time the weather changes, I start having issues. Could this be related to those high eosinophil levels? Should I be concerned or do something specific about it? Looking for some guidance on what steps might help manage these flare-ups.

View allI've been dealing with a dust allergy and was advised to use Metaspray. I didn't get a refill for about four days after my last one ran out, and during that gap, I didn't take any other meds. Then, I caught a cold and fever, but that's starting to calm down now. I'm back on my Metaspray, but I'm really struggling with a dry cough and severe throat pain from all the coughing. What should I do?
yes u can use it, visit ur physician for apprpropriate managent

I have a pretty bad dust allergy, and I've been feeling feverish with a headache because of it. My doctor prescribed me Levozet tablets, but I'm worried about the drowsiness they cause. I'm still in school and cant afford to be sleepy during classes. Is it safe for me to keep taking these? What can I do about the drowsiness?
To reduce the effects of dust allergies, you can try these steps: Clean regularly Use a damp cloth or mop to clean floors, and vacuum regularly. You can also use an electrostatic cloth or brush for hard-to-reach areas. Wash bedding Wash all bedding weekly in hot water that's at least 130F (54.4C) to kill dust mites. You can also put bedding in the dryer for at least 15 minutes at a high heat setting. Use allergen-resistant covers Use zippered covers on your mattress, pillows, and box springs. Keep humidity low Use a dehumidifier or air conditioner to keep the humidity level in your home below 55%. Reduce dust traps Remove soft furniture and curtains, and avoid heavy drapes. Use a HEPA filter Use a vacuum with a HEPA filter, or install a high-efficiency media filter in your furnace and air conditioning unit. Use a dust mite spray Spray dust mite covers with a product containing acaricides to reduce symptoms. See an allergist If your symptoms are worse at home, especially when cleaning or going to bed, you can see an allergist for diagnosis and treatment.
