Allergic Rhinitis
"My D.O. and I worked for years to find something that would stop my daily hives and stuffy, runny nose without much success until I tried cetirizine.  My hives and extreme itchiness disappeared after the first dose, and I&#039;ve been on it since.  For this, I rate it a 10.  Unfortunately, it didn&#039;t help my sinus situation at all.  I can&#039;t take a decongestant because every time I take one, I get bronchitis.  Silly, I know, but that&#039;s my body.  Because cetirizine doesn&#039;t help my sinus situation at all, it rates a zero in this category, giving the drug an effectiveness rating of five."
