Hi Shannon - ask your doctor for real allergy meds - Claritin, Allegra, or something like that. Here in Canada, they're available off the shelf. I'd never voluntarily take Benedril for environmental allergies.

BTW, there's nowhere in DANDR that I can find where antihistimines are blamed for slow loss. There's no reason why they should stall you. Take 'em. You need 'em.
