Care Allergy Defence can be used by pregnant women and children from 18 months

(01/07/2010)

There are 16 million hayfever sufferers in the UK. If you’re pregnant, breastfeeding or have young children as most hayfever treatments are not recommended. But help is at hand with new Care Allergy Defence - a clinically proven powder spray which rapidly relieves hayfever symptoms.

Based on natural cellulose and peppermint powder, which cannot be absorbed by the body, Care Allergy Defence contains no steroids or antihistamines. It also has no known side effects or interactions with other medication and can be used by pregnant/breast feeding women and children from 18 months (under supervision).

Containing Nasaleze technology, Care Allergy Defence forms an invisible but effective barrier in the nose to block pollen and other airborne allergens getting into the body. In clinical trials, Care Allergy Defence demonstrated hayfever efficacy rates as high as 90%.

A single puff is inhaled in each nostril three times a day, or whenever required. Care Allergy Defence 500mg (200 sprays), RRP £6-99 is available from Boots, Sainsbury’s and Morrison’s Pharmacy or online.

“My six year old son Elliott started getting hayfever symptoms at the age of four. To start with, our doctor said that Elliott’s sneezing, blocked nose and itchy eyes were due to an allergic reaction to the family cat. But as his cousins suffer with hayfever and asthma, I was on the look out for possible symptoms in Elliott. We live next door to a large open field and when the grass was cut, Elliott really suffered – his nose was so blocked he had problems breathing. I didn’t want to start using antibiotics, antihistamines or steroid sprays for such a young child.

My pharmacist recommended Care Allergy Defence because it doesn’t contain any drugs. Elliott is quite happy to have it squirted into his nose because it stops his hayfever and he can go out to play with his friends – even in the cut grass. Now he’s started primary school, he takes it in with him and I feel reassured to know that he’s taking something without drugs that’s really doing the job.”
