Itchy Eyes
My 7 year old suffer from sinus and asthma, which at his age affect eyes, nose, and ears also. He always scrach his eyes and they are now becoming redish, what can u recommend over the counter for him?, which he can use now to relieve the itchyness.
Pharmacist
Hi Veronica - You can either consider an oral antihistamine or an eye drop.
An eye drop that should bring some relief is Spersallerg - Instil 1 drop 1-2 times daily in his eye(s).
Otherwise he can take half a Zyrtec tablet twice daily (or 5 ml of Zyrtec Syrup in morning and evening).
