Hello jona & welcome to the site. I have had allergies & used allergy meds most of my life. I haven't not had any of them upset my stomach, but then everyone is different. It should be taken on an empty stomach as Pledge says & agree that you should check with your phamatist about why this would be happening. If you don't get a good answer there you may have to check with your doctor to see why this is happening...

Hello jona13. Its recommened that allegra be taken on an empty stomach. As to upset stomach, perhaps an over the counter medication can be used to help. I'm not a pharmacist or doctor, perhaps your pharmacist might have some ideas, on how to help in regards to stomach upset, issues. Or someone from the site might have some ideas. Best wishes,pledge
