Alaway Antihistamine, Eye Itch Relief Drops, Twin Pack, 0.34 fl oz Each

Great product & very easy to install

1st time trying this item and I must say it works very well and clears my eyes up quickly.

eyes itch

These are pretty great. They're not as good as the behind-the-counter-need-a-prescription ones, but for the price they do a great job. They do burn when I put them in, but the intensity of the burn seems to depend on how dry my eyes are. There are times the burn is so intense it makes my eyes water and I have to close them to knock the intensity down a couple of notches to bearable, but at least I know they're working. And like I said, that seems to be when I need them most because my eye allergies have dried out my eyes so it feels like I'm blinking grit.On a normal day, these will last 10-12 hours. I have some pretty intense eye allergies, so without paying for prescription strength eye drops, I'm pretty happy with that. On bad days they last 4-6 hours, but I usually run into a bad day only once every two weeks or so.If you're not looking to spend $100+ on "behind the counter" eye drops, or even $25+ once your insurance kicks in, give these a try. They're not perfect, but they are a perfect happy medium.

seems to work as advertised

I have cats, I'm allergic to cats. I don't have problems till I'm tired and rub my eyes a lot, then they get irritated, constantly water, keep feeling like something is in them so I keep wiping them out and rubbing them then the inner lining over my lower eyelid and eyeball ball will fill with fluid when it's really bad. This no longer happens to me, when the rubbing and allergy stuff starts I put these drops in and wash my hands and it cuts it off before it can even begin to get bad, life saver. I've talked to my Dr about prescription eye drops and he said insurance doesn't cover them and they're stupid expensive, no worries, these drops are great. I've tried many other allergy drops at the drug store and none handle the allergic reaction this well, these do nothing for redness or appearance, they are a straight forward allergy eye drop.

I bought Alaway over Zaditor for 2 reasons. 1) It has the exact same active ingredient of Ketotifen Fumarate in the same concentration and 2) it was 1/3 less than Zaditor. Both Alaway and Zaditor are second generation allergy eyedrops which have antihistamine (which blocks your body's response to the histamine produced from the allergic reaction as well as mast cell stabilizers which prevent the release of histamines. When I used this I found that I had some initial immediate relief, but the true effect happened about a week or two later when I no longer had symptoms.These eye drops work by preventing symptoms so your body will need to heal and get rid of the existing histamines before you will have 100% allergy relief. Oh yeah, and I was able to use these successfully with my Acuvue Moist contact lenses by applying the eye drops first and waiting a couple minutes before putting on the lenses.

I started using these eye drops after a eye specialist recommended them. I have moderate dry eye issues and so am very susceptible to pollens etc. One trick he recommended and it works a treat is to gently pat excess around the lid and under eye area because it stops the associated swelling...it works amazingly! I’ve also used these drops with great success on mozzy and Nat bites. It takes about 30mins to kick in but then gives me about 8 hours relief from the crazy itching and swelling I usually get. I mark one bottle for the family to use for bites and Keep the other one separate for my eyes so as to not get it contaminated. Simply one drop in each eye morning and evening is enough to keep my eyes from looking like picture and feeling like someone has thrown sand in my eyes!Amazing drops, highly recommend them.
