Hay fever symptoms can be miserable for people with allergies as red eyes, a runny nose and itchiness are often be difficult to soothe.
But there's one over-the-counter antihistamine tablet which has been dubbed a “miracle cure” to alleviate these nasty symptoms.
Allevia, which retails as low as £2,99, has received glowing reviews after it went viral on TikTok. The tablets claim to provide relief from symptoms for up to 24 hours - and you can get them in most supermarkets and chemists, selling at Superdrug for £5.89.
The tablets were only available on prescription until they were re-classified in 2021. This means people can buy the pills on general sale from their local shop, supermarket or chemist and get relief within 1 hour.
Allevia, which can also be purchased at Boots for £11.50 as part of a bundle worth £16.50, alleviate symptoms including:
Sneezing
Itchy, runny, blocked nose
Itchy, watery and red eyes
