Medications such as Flonase, Claritin, Benadryl or Aerius are designed to help you manage your symptoms. These medications provide temporary relief for allergic rhinitis, and only suppress symptoms, rather than treating the cause of the symptoms.

Immunotherapy is the only form of long-term relief from allergies, and involves the repeated administration of small doses of allergens to help your body overcome allergies and therefore your symptoms.
