Seems to work very well. I don't believe the alleged mechanism of action, but it definitely reduces or eliminates runny noses and sneezing.

I was VERY hesitant to try this (or anything really) on my 22 month old daughter but she inherited our terrible seasonal allergies and she was miserable all the time as soon as spring arrived.

My main selling point that it's just a blocker that you put around the nostrile and top lip, so there's no indgestion of anything. I was worried that A) my daughter would fight me to the death if I tried to put this on her and B) that it would cause irritation since she has very sensitive skin. Luckily she barely made a fuss, she thought it was makeup like I put on and she thought it was hilarious when I blew on her face to make the gooey stuff dry. Also, there was no irritation at all.

We've been using this for a little over 2 months now and it's worked really well even on the worst pollen filled days. Granted on the really bad days we would only be outside to get in and out of the car but still to anyone with horrible pollen allergies you know that's enough to cause a massive sneeze storm and bring on some horrible congestion. She's been able to avoid all of that with just a small application of this blocker. We can now play outside and not have to worry about feeling crappy. I even used it a few times when I forgot to take my own meds. It really does work! I do have to reapply if she rubs her nose alot or if she gets sweaty...same rules as sunblock.

The tube is incredibly small but it lasts a long time, I'm still using the same tube I started with in March (it's May now). A little bit goes a long way with this stuff, it's super gooey and will spread easily all over a tiny nose.

FYI - this only blocks allergens that are breathed into the nose and won't help with itchy eyes or skin.

I absolutely love this product! I used to buy it at a big chain drugstore, and they discontinued carrying it, as well as at the nationwide discount dept. store that has a pharmacy.

The thing I love with this is that it has cut down on my use of OTC antihistamines and decongestants, which I don't tolerate well for some reason. Maybe the reason it's not carried in DRUG stores anymore! I don't get drowsy and all the other normal side effects. I use it before bed, after I put my makeup on and then again in the afternoon. There are a few times where it isn't quite enough, but I love that it has drastically reduced my use of OTC's. I get 2 or 3 and make sure I carry one in my purse, one by my nightstand and extra just in case.

I wish this was around when my kids were little, it would save on them taking OTC meds as well.

When sometimes indoor allergy medication does not seem to give total relief,i also apply a tiny amount every 4 -5 hours on my little ones,just to completely block allergens.
Still wish it came in bigger quantity.

Thanks
