As the flowers bloom and temperatures rise, we find ourselves battling itchy eyes, sneezing, and congestion. Yes, it’s allergy season again. If you dealt with spring allergies last year, you’re not alone—millions of Americans experience seasonal allergies annually, and the right medication can make all the difference.
To help you breathe easier this season, our team at MedPlus Pharmacy has rounded up the top 5 allergy medications—including both over-the-counter (OTC) and prescription options—that are proven to offer relief in 2025.
1. Claritin (Loratadine)
Type: Antihistamine (OTC)
Best For: Sneezing, runny nose, itchy/watery eyes
Claritin continues to be a go-to antihistamine that offers non-drowsy, 24-hour relief. It’s especially helpful for people with mild to moderate seasonal allergies.
✅ Available at MedPlus Pharmacy
✅ Safe for daily use
Pro Tip: Need medication that won’t disturb your daily activity? Claritin is ideal for fast relief without feeling sleepy throughout the day.
2. Zyrtec (Cetirizine)
Type: Antihistamine (OTC)
Best For: Persistent allergy symptoms, moderate to severe allergic reactions
Zyrtec works quickly and lasts all day. It’s slightly stronger than Claritin and may cause mild drowsiness. A great option for managing multiple symptoms.
✔️ Trusted by many local pharmacy customers
✔️ Works well for both indoor and outdoor allergens
3. Flonase (Fluticasone Propionate)
Type: Nasal corticosteroid spray (OTC)
Best For: Nasal congestion, post-nasal drip
Flonase treats inflammation in the nasal passages, making it especially helpful for stuffiness or sinus pressure. It’s one of the most recommended nasal sprays for spring allergies in 2025.

4. Allegra (Fexofenadine)
Type: Antihistamine (OTC)
Best For: Non-drowsy, all-day allergy control
Allegra is another great option for daytime relief. Like Claritin, it’s non-sedating and perfect for staying focused during work or school.
⭐ Available through our pharmacy
⭐ Great for those who need to stay alert and productive
5. Montelukast (Singulair)
Type: Prescription leukotriene receptor antagonist
Best For: Nighttime symptoms, asthma-related allergies
Montelukast is a prescription medication often used alongside antihistamines for more complex allergy cases. It’s especially helpful if you also suffer from asthma or nighttime symptoms.
