Carol Purdy - Female – 48

Has suffered with hayfever every year since she was 15 years old. Also suffers with dust allergy. She normally takes generally OTC antihistamine but feels the most effective are the branded ones, such as Benadryl, rather than the supermarket’s own tablets. She felt it worked within half an hour which was due to the administration of the product. She took it twice a day for 3 weeks (morning and night). Her hayfever started quite late this season hence her only taking it for a short period of time. She felt it reduced her symptoms a lot, and did not take any other medication whilst using NASALEZE. She would definitely use it again, and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend.

Suzanne Wells – Female – 58

Has suffered with dust mite allergy for 37 years and currently her lungs are not working to their full capacity. Not diagnosed as asthmatic as yet, but doctor has prescribed an inhaler and will see how that goes. She has used both sprays and general antihistamine relief in the past, including stronger prescription ones – “you name it I’ve used it”. The most effective has been Flixonase. She says that NASALEZE doesn’t always work, but when it does she can feel the effects in half an hour. She feels it is better because of the speed at which she feels it works (others are either slow or don’t work at all). She doses 4 times a day most days. She feels it reduces symptoms a lot and the only other medication she has, if necessary, is her inhaler and if she has a bad bout of hayfever a general OTC antihistamine. She is still using the product and would definitely recommend it as it is the only thing that gives her relief.

Mrs D Hodges – Female – 71

Has suffered with asthma all her life, but 10 months ago started to experience hayfever symptoms. She hasn’t used much product in the past, but has been given Nasonex by her doctor. She feels that NASALEZE works quickly, and was better than the previous product she used. She doses 4 times a day, and has nearly finished the bottle and it helps quite a lot. She has both a reliever and preventer for her asthma, and has she has suffered with her chest quite a lot in the last 10 months has had 3 lots of antibiotics and 2 doses of steroids but these don’t appear to be having any effect. She will be buying more NASALEZE once her bottle runs out, and would recommend its use.

Julie Haworth – Female – 41

Suffered with hayfever 10 years ago, and hasn’t suffered since until this year, however when she does suffer it’s not too bad. She has previously only used Clarityn which worked okay but not brilliantly. She felt that NASALEZE worked more or less instantly, and she felt it was better because, due to the administration, she felt that it had an instant effect. She used it for 2 weeks – once/twice a day – and she felt that it gave complete relief. She didn’t use any other medication alongside it. She would definitely use it again and would also recommend it.

Susan Wrigley – Female – 54

Susan has suffered quite a lot with allergies in the past and for quite some time. She has used a number of the general antihistamines and found that the Morrisons Hayfever and Allergy Relief worked best. She feels relief from symptoms within 2 hours of using the spray and thinks it’s better because it’s easier to use. She is still using it and doses twice a day. She thinks it reduces her symptoms a lot. She will definitely use it in the future and would recommend it to others.

Diane Fitzgerald – Female – (Rosie – 16)

Rosie has not suffered with allergies at all until this summer, when she started to experience symptoms. She has only used Piriton which, even though it says it won’t make you sleepy, it did which Rosie didn’t like. Diane says it took less than 2 days for the symptoms to disappear, and found it easier to use because it is a spray and it reduced her symptoms by over 90%. Her mother will definitely use it again and would recommend it.

Glenda Lockwood – Female – 71

Suffered with hay fever as a child but is not as severe as she gets older. In the 1970s she had 3 injections for it, and has since tried OTC antihistamines and prescription medicines from the doctor, in particular loratadine and cetirizine. She found that the loratadine works best. She says that she felt relief with NASALEZE within 20 minutes and thinks it’s better because it’s a spray and therefore easier to use and also gives faster relief. She has been using it for approximately 6 weeks with 2 doses a day. She hasn’t added any other medication whilst using it. She would definitely use it again and would recommend it.

Sally Buckland – Female – 35

Sally has suffered with hay fever for the last 5 years but it hasn’t been as bad this year, probably due to the lack of summer! She has previously taken general OTC antihistamines and some medication prescribed by the doctor, but nothing sticks in her mind that worked better than the other. She found that NASALEZE worked quite fast for her, and that it was better as it was easier as a spray, and also she felt quicker relief of her symptoms. She dosed about twice a day and has only a little left in the bottle she was sent. She would definitely use it again and would recommend it, and has indeed already done so to her father who has used it to great effect.

Mrs Coquette Officer – Female – 56

Has suffered with sinus problems for a long time in the summer, and found it manageable by using general antihistamine (which didn’t really do much) and Sinutab which she found was the best relief she could get. NASALEZE worked quite fast for her – she felt relief of symptoms within about 15 minutes, and found it better because it worked quicker. She used it for about a week and dosed on average twice a day, and this helped reduce her symptoms a lot. She would definitely use it again and recommend it.

Mrs C Wallington – Female – 51

Has suffered with hayfever for the last 4/5 years which she has managed previously on general antihistamines and Allereeze, which she found produced the best results. NASALEZE worked fairly quickly for her, and felt it was better because it was a spray and easier to use. She took it for about 3 days and dosed twice a day and it relieved her symptoms quite a lot. She would use it again and definitely recommend it.

Jenny Amphlett – Female – 35

Has suffered with hay fever previously and used both eye drops and nasal sprays prior to giving birth which were every effective. She had to give those up due to breast feeding and switched to NASALEZE as the main attraction for her is that it is drug free. She’s not sure how quickly it worked, as she just continued to use it, and as it worked she kept using it. She only used it in the morning and it relieved her symptoms a lot. Due to her circumstances, she did not take any other medications alongside NASALEZE, and would definitely use it again and recommend it.

Sara Rothery – Female – 33

Sara has had a (not particularly bad) nut allergy since the age of 17/18 which she manages by avoiding all contact, has suffered from hay fever since the age of 10, together with various other allergies, ie. animals, dust etc. She has managed this previously by use of nasal sprays from the doctor and general antihistamines. She mentions Zyrtec and the nasal sprays have had the most effective previously. She says that NASALEZE took a while to get into her system, but once it did, the effect was more or less instant and gave her complete relief from symptoms. She is still using the bottle sent to her and doses approximately every other day, or whenever the need arises. She feels it is better because it is easier to use, you don’t have to remember whether you’ve had a dose or not (unlike tablets) and has she is breastfeeding the fact that it is drug free was a definite advantage. She would definitely use it again and recommend it.

Mrs U.M.Brewer – Female – 55

Mrs Brewer has been suffering from hay fever for a little while, and has previously used the run of the mill antihistamines to manage this, but no one particular product sticks out as being more effective than the other. She felt that NASALEZE took a little while to work, but once it did, on the whole it relieved her symptons a lot, she found it easier to use because it’s a spray, and the fact that it is drug free was a particular advantage. She has just about finished the bottle that was sent, and has used it on demand, rather than by routine dosing. Due to the fact that she is on long term medication, which has recently been altered, her doctor has asked her not to continue with NASALEZE for the time being, but if this changes, she would definitely use it again. She would also recommend it to others, and has in fact done so to a friend who is currently using it herself and is finding it very effective.

Wendy Plant – Female – 39

Suffers with hay fever during the summer months, and in the past has tried all the usual antihistamines. The only product that she found really helpful were the nasal electronic devices although they didn’t give much more relief than the other medications she has taken. She felt that NASALEZE worked within a few minutes and she felt it was better because of the speed of relief, how long the relief lasted and that, as it is drug free, she didn’t feel she was constantly taking drugs. She took it for about 3-4 weeks and dosed on demand. She felt it offered considerably more relief than everything she has taken in the past, she would use it again, and would definitely recommend it to others.
