Many Americans may not be aware of fall allergies, but it's important for people to know that spring is not the only time you can have a runny nose, watery eyes, sneezing and/or nasal congestion from upper respiratory allergies. In fact, the most common seasonal allergy trigger, ragweed, is usually found in the fall.

To help allergy sufferers nationwide, the Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America (AAFA) released its 2008 Fall Allergy Capitals™ list, which is sponsored by the makers of ZYRTEC^® (cetirizine HCl), along with tips to help identify and treat your worst allergy symptoms.  The annual research project ranks the fall's 100 most challenging cities to live in for people with upper respiratory allergies.
