HOW
DOES DR. HARRIS ORIGINAL ALLERGY FORMULA® WORK?
This
patented formula contains a unique combination of 100% natural herbs
and enzymes extracted by a special process from botanicals. They are
tested multiple times to insure only the highest quality and potency.
The enzymes digest the excess secretions and allow the body to absorb
and remove them. They also act as a potent anti-inflammatory agent,
thereby reducing the irritation of the respiratory mucous membranes.
The herbs reduce the tissue swelling and the allergic reaction.
The
combination of these actions serves to reduce the nasal discharge, reduce
the nasal congestion, open up the Eustachian tube, open up the channels
leading from the sinuses, decrease the mucous membrane inflammation
and reduce the sneezing and coughing.
HOW
SHOULD I TAKE DR. HARRIS ORIGINAL ALLERGY FORMULA®?
To
derive the maximum benefits from the product, it must be taken correctly.
The adult dosage is l-2 caplets every 4-6 hours as needed for symptoms
of allergy or sinusitis.
Since
every person is unique, the dosage may vary considerably. To obtain
the fastest and best results, it is recommended that you initially double
the usual dosage. When the maximum benefit is obtained, lower the dosage
by ½ caplet each time the formula is taken until you achieve the lowest
dosage which still controls your symptoms.
Higher
dosages may result in a feeling of dryness in the nose and throat. Since
the drying effect is what we want to achieve, this indicates that Dr.
Harris Original Allergy Formula® is working. This may be alleviated
by sucking on a hard sugarless candy as well as by lowering the dosage
as described above.
There
are many things that you can do to increase the effectiveness of the
product, including the following:
- Always
take Dr. Harris Original Allergy Formula® on an empty stomach.
- Avoid
dairy products such as milk, butter, cheese, etc., as they tend to
increase the production of respiratory secretions.
- Stop
or reduce cigarette smoking, as it increases respiratory secretions.

CAN
I GIVE DR. HARRIS ORIGINAL ALLERGY FORMULA®
TO MY CHILD?
Children
under the age of l6 years of age are the largest segment of the population
affected by allergies and chronic or recurrent sinusitis. The complications
of these problems are also more frequent and more severe in this group.
Testing on children to date indicates that the product is safe and well
tolerated. Dr. Harris Original Allergy Formula® should only
be given to children able to swallow a caplet without difficulty.
The
recommended dosage for children under the age of 12 years is ½ the adult
dosage or one caplet every 4-6 hours with a maximum of six caplets in
a 24-hour period. We advise you to check with your physician before
giving Dr. Harris Original Allergy Formula® to children younger
than six years of age.
HOW
EFFECTIVE IS DR. HARRIS ORIGINAL ALLERGY FORMULA®?
In
a double blind clinical study carried out by Dennis H. Harris, M.D.
on 80 chronic allergy/sinusitis sufferers, 83% reported good to excellent
results when taking this formulation.
- WHAT
OTHER TREATMENTS ARE AVAILABLE FOR
ALLERGIES AND SINUSITIS?
Since
these conditions are not new in medical history, it is not surprising
that various treatments for these problems have been tried for hundreds
of years. Like many chronic diseases, these conditions have been difficult
to control effectively. Control measures used only for treatment of
allergies include the following:
Avoidance
Therapy. If the affected person
is allergic to only one substance, complete avoidance of that allergen
would prevent any symptoms. From a practical standpoint, this is virtually
impossible, as almost everyone affected is allergic to more than one
substance.
Antihistamines.
These are chemicals designed to neutralize histamine and reduce sneezing,
nasal discharge and itching due to allergic rhinitis. It is not effective
against nasal congestion or eye symptoms. Side effects are very common
and include drowsiness that is often severe, dryness of the mouth, dizziness,
vertigo, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal pain and irritability
in children.
Chromolyn
Sodium. A chemical sprayed
intra-nasally which can partially prevent or treat an allergic reaction.
The side effects include sneezing, nasal burning and nasal irritation.
Immunotherapy.
A treatment program that attempts to elevate the threshold for symptoms
to appear following repeated exposure to the antigens. The results in
patients with allergy to multiple antigens is usually mediocre at best.
The program must be followed for 3-6 years or the symptoms will recur
rapidly after treatment is discontinued. The expense is immense.
Control
measures used for the treatment of both allergies and sinusitis include
the following:
Decongestants.
Medications that reduce nasal and sinus wall swelling, reduce nasal
congestion, increase access for air and improve sinus drainage. When
administered either orally or topically for periods of more than 5-7
days, a "rebound phenomenon" occurs, whereby the nasal mucus
membranes become more swollen and congested due to the continued use
of the medication. When taken orally, these drugs can cause nervousness,
insomnia, tachycardia (excessively fast heart rate) and hypertension.
Serious health effects can occur in patients with high blood pressure,
heart disease, hyperthyroidism, angina (chest pain) or those taking
certain antidepressant medications.
Cortisone.
When taken orally for more than two weeks, these drugs have such severe
side effects that they are now used only rarely for treatment. When
used intra-nasally, they are effective in reducing allergic symptoms.
The drugs have side effects that include nasal irritation, crusting,
bleeding, perforation
of the nasal septum and production of fungal disease in the nose and
airway.
Control
measures used only for treatment of sinusitis include the following:
Antibiotics.
Since sinusitis frequently is associated with bacterial infections,
antibiotics are commonly used as a part of the treatment regimen. These
drugs have numerous side effects which include skin eruption, dizziness,
headache, abdominal pain, heartburn, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, sun
sensitivity on exposed skin areas and others.
Mucolytics.
These medications act to liquefy thick secretions to aid in sinus drainage.
Diarrhea is a frequent side effect.
Nasal
Toilet. To assist sinus drainage,
application of moist heat to the face and steam inhalation are beneficial.
A warm saline solution may also be delivered into the nasal cavity using
a pulsing-powered irrigation device. This is extremely uncomfortable
and must be done professionally.
Surgery.
Many techniques have been developed to improve sinus drainage, depending
on which sinus cavities are involved. Complications include scarring,
postoperative hemorrhage, injury to structures around the eye, e.g.,
damage to the globe, damage to the optic nerve, damage to the muscles
that move the eye and bleeding within the orbit (eye socket), leakage
of spinal fluid, damage to the brain and bleeding into the brain.
