    After nimo matake ang fudness you can see/feel allergy sypmtoms, like meh, allergic ko sa tulingan or any black meat sa fish, mohubag dayon ako lips morag napaakan sa buyog.
    naa pud koy allergy sa prawns but not sa shrimps huh.
    I discovered it recently lang, naospital gud ko. Kay I felt so dizzy with a combination of chills, LBM and vomiting, ako whole body from my face , neck down, morag natil-asan ganeh! As in grabeh jud!

    Advice nako sis, if d ka sure na allergy kha , gamay lang sah ang intake nimo sa food or testingi sah bha.

    And then, if feel nimo mokatol any part of your body no need to take medication agad , pwede ra asukar ang tambal. For me, I spread evenly sugar (refined sugar) all over my lips, it's gives me a soothing relief.

In fact, in an independent US study, Xyzal was shown to be the only isomer in the market that is slightly inferior to the original compound, Zyrtec. Sorry kaayo wak_wak ha, nag yawyaw ko dire. Drug companies need to make money to recoup their investments, I know that. Maglagot lang ko aning mga doctor, gapalami prescribe ug Xyzal when they know it is so ridiculously expensive, nga naa man unta barato ra kaayo nga OTC nga pareha ra ug effectivity. Patient care man unta ilang unang concern. The prescribing patterns of some doctors (not all, ok) are a joke! Everytime gani naay mogawas nga new brand drug, of an already old compound that has a generic, magkatawa nalang ko kay ang mga doctor atat kaayo mo prescribe sa new brand, nevermind the astronomical price. It's as if they've forgotten their medical education, nakalimot sila nga bisan new brand, pareha ra man intawon na ug active ingredient oi. Murag na brainwash sila sa drug companies sa ilang mga seminar nga naay pakapin nga free lunch in a fancy restaurant.

    This is my pet peeve. Don't believe all the crap your doctor tells you. Be aware.

    The latest marketing ploy of drug companies is to introduce "isomers" of parent compounds, slap them with a new brand name, tout them as "superior" than the original compound, and charge you an arm and a leg for it, because they know you don't know any better.

    This goes for all "isomers" out there, just as a caveat:

    cetirizine vs. levocetirizine
    loratadine vs. desloratadine
    citalopram vs. escitalopram
    venlafaxine vs. desvenlafaxine

    etc etc etc
    Agree with this but not at all times. For me, I ONLY buy a drug from the company that FIRST discovered and marketed it (meaning, the innovator). I don't care about the price as long as I am sure it is the original>>> peace of mind. Lots of medications here that are generics and has passed through anyone's corrupt hands and manufactured from God knows where. To the TS: suggest to see a doctor if you haven't s gone already. Facial or sun-exposed rashes could also mean SLE.
