Answer:
Caffeine is not good for anyone, as far as I know. However, here are some good tips from my allergist. I take Clarinex twice a day. but in addition, I wash my dogs weekly and rinse them in a good fabric softener. (check with your vet to make sure it won't aggravate their skin.) I wash my clothing separately from my husband's because he goes different places and picks up pollens where he goes. Not everything goes out with the wash. I bought a vacuum cleaner that is good for dealing with allergens. I shower twice a day and wash my hair before bed. I change the sheets on my bed every day. I covered my pillows and mattresses in plastic and then with a cotton zip cover which I wash once a week. I also wash down the plastic. My bedroom curtains are cotton during allergy season, so they can be washed as well. I wear a mask when I'm dusting because I don't want my allergies to graduate to asthma and because I'm so uncomfortable during allergy season. And we also got a central heat and air condition with a filter than can be changed regularly. Previously we had a wood burning stove...which we still have...but which aggravates my allergies alot. Can't think of anything else, other than checking with your doctor. Claritin is sold over the counter and it is a 24 hour pill. It works pretty well and doesn't put you to sleep.

No, caffeine will not help allergies. It will, however, help asthma. I let my daughter drink coffee when her asthma is acting up. I let my younger son drink mocha when he has asthma.
