Adverse Side Effects of Zyrtec? Flonase? Albuterol?

My son recently started on a regimen of Zyrtec and Flonase daily, and Albuterol as needed. When we started these meds, I posted something on this site about his allergies/meds, and another mom said to be cautious, as Zyrtec caused aggression in her son. Mom, if you're reading this, please respond! I'm wondering exactly what that looked like, or if any of your children experienced any adverse side effects from any of the meds I listed.

What Do I Do for My 3 Year Old's Stuffy Nose???

Hi. Anyone else out there try to buy cold medicine this season for your toddler and finding that evertyhing has been taken off the market for cold medicine for kids under 6?
