Start

If you notice a weight gain after taking Allegra, consider the following suggestions:

Eat a heart-healthy diet. This diet should include:
o Fruits, vegetables, grains, and fat-free or low-fat milk and milk products
o Lean meats, poultry, fish, beans, eggs, and nuts
o Limited amounts of foods containing saturated fats, trans fats, cholesterol, sodium (salt), and added sugars.
Engage in regular physical activity for at least 30 minutes a day on most days of the week.

Limit your intake of alcohol.

Also, if you are noticing weight gain with Allegra, talk to your healthcare provider. He or she can give you other suggestions for dealing with any weight gain. If the weight gain continues, he or she may recommend other lifestyle choices or a switch to another allergy medication.
