Hello,
The use of most anti-histamines is well documented during pregnancy. The most documented are Reactin or Claritin
What are your symptoms more specifically?

Sneezing and runny nose
thank you :)

Okay, thanks for the clarification. You should normally have a good effect with either of these medications if you take them regularly during the allergy period. These symptoms are usually quite well treated with regular anti-histamines. So Reactin or Claritin would be for you.
