I've been dealing with allergies from things like dust and pollen, which usually leave me with a running nose and watery eyes. To manage this, I've been taking Cetrizine 10mg every few days for about a year now. I'm just a bit worried about whether there are any serious side effects from using this medication long-term? Or maybe there's a better way to handle this that I haven't tried?

I've been noticing that whenever I touch something colder than the usual temperature, I start to sneeze. It's also happening with the early morning breeze sometimes, giving me that sneezing sensation. Is this something I should be concerned about or is it just a common reaction?

Chronic cold and cough can be frustrating. Considering your allergy-like symptoms, possible causes include: - Allergies (dust, pollen, pet dander) - Environmental factors (pollution, tobacco smoke) - Sinusitis or respiratory infections For relief, try: - Antihistamines (e.g., cetirizine, loratadine) - Decongestants (e.g., pseudoephedrine) - Nasal sprays (e.g., saline, oxymetazoline) - Drinking plenty of fluids - Using a humidifier Consult a doctor or allergist to determine the underlying cause and receive personalized guidance.
