I don't know what the doctor would say now as everything changes (overnight it seems), but I took Zyrtec while I was pregnant with both of my children. They had told me to take either Benedryl or Psuedophed, but I knew I was very sensitive to Benedryl so I tried Psuedophed and man oh man, I was wired all day. So it is now in my charts that I am allergic to Psuedophed. The only other option at the time for me was Zyrtec which my OB happily prescribed.

Good luck to you.

I took singulair through both of my pregnancies with my OB's okay. Just talk to your OB and ask what they recommend. They can prescribe you what you need. Good luck - I know how terrible it can be.

My OB let me take Zyrtec, Benedryl and any Tylenol products. I liked to take the Benedryl at night because it made me sleep really good. Oh, and once when I got really bad he prescribed a Z-pac when my allergies turned into a sinus infection and respiratory infection.

Good Luck and feel better soon!

i have severe allergies, and am able to take most if not all of my meds while pregnant. Claritin, Benadryl, any tylenol allergy product, allegra, asthma stuff, whatever. It's all generally very safe.
