> Stopped taking pseudophedrine for seasonal allergies and have to see my MD about options. Any suggestions?Pick around the cheese. The diet it really not as complicated as it seems. I've been on and off Parnate for 20+ years and many of the 'forbidden' foods are fine in moderation. It all depends on how high/low the tyramine content is.
I can't remember the drug I take for my allergies but it's over the counter and works for 12 hours or more. Since mine are seasonal, I'll have to go look it up. I'll post again once I get the name.
Good luck and let us know how it goes.
