Hi, there are several groups of medications for allergies. First there are antihistamines medicines which block allergic reaction. Antihistamines of new generation do not cause drowsiness. Also steroids may be used for reducing of inflammation. Nasal steroid sprays are very popular today. Newest medications are anti-IgE medications which prevent release histamine from the cells. There are also leukotriene modifiers which are used at patients with asthma because they reduce swelling and relax smooth muscles in lung's airways.
