What are the best hay fever tablets?

The best hay fever tablets are the cheapest non-drowsy options like generic loratadine, cetirizine, and fexofenadine. These provide effective relief similar to branded versions such as Clarityn, Piriteze, or Allevia but at a much lower cost. Always check current prices as they fluctuate, and choose based on whether you prefer once-daily dosing without drowsiness.

Key points:

  • Generic loratadine (Clarityn equivalent) offers the lowest cost.
  • Generic cetirizine (Piriteze or Benadryl equivalent) is highly effective and good value
  • Generic fexofenadine (Allevia equivalent) suits those needing stronger relief.
  • Non-drowsy types work best for daily use during hay fever season.
