"A multiclinic, double-blind, parallel and controlled study was conducted in the 1982 spring pollen season to evaluate and compare the effects of terfenadine, 60 mg bid with those of chlorpheniramine 4 mg tid and placebo for a treatment period of seven days in patients with seasonal allergic rhinitis and conjunctivitis."9.05Multicenter, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial of terfenadine in seasonal allergic rhinitis and conjunctivitis.

"To determine whether better health-related quality of life (HRQL) is achieved by initiating treatment of seasonal (ragweed) rhinoconjunctivitis (hay fever) with a nasal steroid (fluticasone) backed up by a nonsedating antihistamine (terfenadine) or whether it is better to start with the antihistamine and add the nasal steroid when necessary."5.08First-line treatment of seasonal (ragweed) rhinoconjunctivitis. A randomized management trial comparing a nasal steroid spray and a nonsedating antihistamine. ( Ferrie, PJ; Griffith, LE; Guyatt, GH; Juniper, EF, 1997)
"In a double blind study patients with hay fever were treated with Astemizole or Terfenadine for 3 to 4 weeks, 12 patients with Astemizole and 6 patients with Terfenadine."5.05[Hay fever therapy with 2 non-sedating antihistaminics]. ( Bäurle, G, 1985)
