What is Hayfever?

Hayfever, or allergic rhinitis, is an allergic reaction to pollen that causes symptoms like sneezing, runny or blocked nose, itchy eyes, and throat irritation. It commonly occurs in spring and summer when pollen levels are high.

How common is it?

Hayfever affects up to 1 in 4 people in the UK. It’s more common in teenagers and young adults but can occur at any age. Symptoms can vary in severity and duration depending on the type of pollen and individual sensitivity.

What causes it?

Hayfever is caused by the immune system overreacting to pollen from grasses, trees, or weeds. The body releases histamine, leading to inflammation and allergic symptoms. Weather changes, high pollen counts, and outdoor exposure can trigger or worsen symptoms.

What treatment options are offered?

Press Pharmacy offers a range of treatments including antihistamines (e.g., Loratadine, Cetirizine), nasal sprays (e.g., Beclometasone), and eye drops to relieve symptoms. These can be used alone or in combination depending on your symptoms.

What are the side effects of treatment options?

Antihistamines are usually well tolerated. Some may cause drowsiness, dry mouth, or dizziness. Nasal sprays may cause minor nosebleeds or dryness. Eye drops can cause brief stinging or irritation. Always use as directed and consult the leaflet for guidance.
