When you purchase your allergy medicine and you decide on the store brand because it is a bit cheaper than the real thing, please make sure that it’s not the kind that dissolve in your mouth NOR the 24 hour non-drowsy kind. I mean come on, 24 hours of non-drowsiness?
I’ve had insomnia something AWFUL off and on for about two weeks now. Not so much while I was in San Francisco but I think that I was just exhausted then. But just before I left and now that I’m back I don’t even get TIRED (with or without a nap, doesn’t seem to matter) before 11:30pm and lately haven’t been falling asleep before 1am. That doesn’t work so well when one has to be up at 6:45am the next morning.
So as I’m about to pop my allergy pill in my mouth I notice that the box says something about dissolving…pop pill, drink water, turn over box. Oh, look at that. Fast dissolving, non-drowsy, something about 24 hour relief. Hmmm. Here’s hoping it will do what all the other “non-drowsy” antihistamines do and zonk me out…but so far no good.
Ugh. I guess I could do my dishes.
Did you swallow the dissolving pill???Is it alavert? That\’s the one I take, but it doesn\’t keep me awake. What if you just let it dissolve in your mouth? It doesn\’t take long, and no water is required.
