Claritin: Summer Allergy Tips

Summer Allergy Tips
During the summer months, grass pollen fills the air across much of North America. There are many types of grasses, and several of them have long seasons. In the southern United States, Bermuda grass is found nearly year-round. When taking care of your entire family, consider these pointers for people whose everyday schedules change in the summer:

• Take Claritin® allergy products as soon as you begin to have symptoms.
• Having medication with you will help you control your allergy symptoms before they control your lifestyle.
• Avoid yard work that may increase your exposure to pollen and molds, such as mowing, raking and weeding.
• Post reminders to take medication.
• Take medication at the same time each day.
• If you need to take medication during the day, carry it with you.
• Buy a watch with an alarm and set it to go off every day when it's time to take your medicine.
• Use Claritin products as directed.

Fruit Pizza
Everyone loves pizza AND desserts so why not combine them both for a sweet treat featuring summer produce!
Ingredients:

• 1 package refrigerated sugar cookie dough
• 1 tub of cream cheese, softened
• 1 container frozen whipped topping, thawed
• A variety of fruit of your choice (strawberries, blueberries, kiwi, grapes, etc)

Directions: Roll out cookie dough into a large circle and bake according to package directions. Allow to cool. Mix cream cheese and whipped topping together and spread evenly over your cookie "crust". Cover the pizza with fruit. For a pretty look, start on the outside and do a layer of each kind of fruit, repeating as you get closer to the center. Refrigerate before cutting into "slices" before serving.
