My New Lifesaver: Mucinex 1200
My allergies are the stuff of legend. And Connecticut has not been kind to them (mainly because most houses here are 100+ years old and without A/C... air conditioning, it's not just about cool air, it's also about getting the sneeze-making crud out of the windpipes).
A new lifesaver in the war against Histamines, Congestion and Associated Scum is Mucinex 1200. Mucinex is guaifenesin - a non-stimulant decongestant. Sudafed (pseudoephedrine hydrochloride) for example will bang my heart like a pinata. Mucinex works very well, doesn't stress the ticker, and the 1200 is a 12 hour timed release pill.
I'd be happy to see a 2400/24-hour pill, but the 1200 is already as big as my pinkie from tip to first knuckle... a 2400 would probably be too big to be taken orally (but a patch would be wunderbar!)
