Hay Fever And Allergy Medication
Changes to local NHS policy on prescribing hay fever medication
In line with NHS England and other North East Clinical Commissioning Groups we no longer prescribe medication for hay fever and allergies.
Most hay fever and allergy tablets, liquids, nasal sprays and eye drops can be purchased from supermarkets and pharmacies.
They include:
Oral antihistamines such as cetirizine, loratadine, desloratadine, chlorphenamine and fexofenadine
Nasal sprays such as beclometasone, fluticasone and mometasone
Eye drops including sodium cromoglycate
Your local pharmacist can offer you hay fever help and advice
