Antihistamines

Histamines are substances that try to attach to the cells in your body and irritate them. Histamines can cause itching, sneezing, a runny nose and watery eyes. Antihistamines prevent histamines from attaching to your cells and causing symptoms. There are many over the counter antihistamines available to help with your child's allergies or symptoms of itch. However, prevention of symptoms by avoiding allergens is the best treatment!
