Has anyone  with Masto tried Zyrtec D or Claritin D for a cold?

Nope... but I had a couple of doozies this winter and found Mucinex very helpful.

I like Heather found mucenix to work for congestion without problems. & for a sinus headache Nasalcrom works wonders for me. They don't have the ketitofen version at Walgreens anymore or would take it.

For a cold, I take Wal-Act. It is the Walgreens version of Actifed, and it works great without triggering me. Our regular antihistamines won't help for colds. My suggestion is to buy some Wal-act and cut the pill in half and just take that. See how you do. If you are fine, then you can increase to the normal 1 pill dose.
