Effective treatment for hay fever that does not respond to pharmacy remedies.
Hay fever (allergic rhinitis) affects millions of people in the UK each year. While mild cases respond to antihistamines from the pharmacy, many people find over-the-counter options are not enough. A GP can prescribe stronger treatments — including nasal steroid sprays, non-sedating antihistamines, and eye drops — that make a real difference.
If pharmacy-bought antihistamines are not controlling your symptoms, if hay fever is disrupting your sleep or work, or if you are unsure whether your symptoms are allergy-related, a GP consultation can provide clarity and stronger treatment options.
Your GP will review your symptoms and allergy history, rule out other causes, and prescribe a tailored treatment plan. This may include prescription-strength nasal sprays, non-drowsy antihistamines, or eye drops. For persistent cases, we can arrange allergy testing or specialist referral.
