Finally, if your medication is helping but you still need more allergy relief, here are some of Winder’s suggestions.

  • Avoid peak pollen times during allergy season. Winders says usually the news will give the pollen counts at different times of day, so try to avoid outdoor activities during that time.
  • Always shower before bed and keep your bedroom windows closed. By showering before bed, you’re removing any allergen that may be on your clothes or skin, so you won’t be breathing them in all night long. And by keeping the windows closed, there won’t be any breezes that will also help you sleep better.
  • And if you have a pet allergy, keep them out of the bedroom. This will also help better breathing at night, which will lead also lead to better sleep.
