Claritin and Flonase for me or else I start walking into the walls from ear imbalance.

Mucinex + saline nasal spray, which unlike most is non-addictive.

I take Claritin and Mucinex for relief.   Even if my issue develops into sinusitis, the doctor says to continue the OTC meds, then prescribes an antibiotic, gives me a steroid shot, along with Phenergan for my cough.

I take Allegra every day and also use a Neti Pot - especially after being outside.

I use a saline spray 3-4 times a day and I take Alka Seltzer 

Cold Plus.  They work great together.

Will write down all your suggestions because I think my allergies are getting worse. My preference would be a nighttime liquid.

Oak1 - I've had success with 24 hour Allegra gelcaps. (white bottle, purple lid)

If I feel like my head is stuffed and I have a mild productive cough, I take Mucinex at bedtime.    My allergy symptoms are generally pretty mild.    Also take Tylenol,
