Allergy Meds?

in Trouble TTC

What's the word on which/any allergy meds that are safe to take while on fertility drugs (this month clomid, next month probably injects again) and during the 2ww?

 

I have heard they can dry up cervical mucous and other things, but am also struggling at work with the allergy symptoms this spring....

    I think that claritin is OK during pregnancy/TTC, but I would double-check with your RE or nurse.

    The pharmacist and the nurse from my RE's clinic both told me Benedryl Allergy was safe...   Apparently it's the combination pills that you have to really stay away from (according to the pharmacist) - so straight claritin is one that get's a re
