I would recommend using a weather app/service which also monitors the pollen intensity and avoid high intensity days. Im using Breezy Weather from the F-droid app store.

Also nasal spray/eyedrops before or during the ride helps me a lot, just avoid rubbing your eyes with bare hands. I am using a big single-lense cycling glass to protect my eyes, also good against the wind.

I usually avoid taking tablets as they make me feel drowsy (even the non-drowsy ones)

Local antihistamine medication is extremely effective.

Usually feel it in the eyes? Eye drops.

Nose? Nasal spray.

Lungs/throat? Inhaler.

My eyes especially, react quite violently, and eye drops provide instant relief. And by administering right before heading out, I can be good for hours.

I also use a nasal spray, though that requires a bit more forethought. If you get symptoms and your nose starts running, that same mucus is gonna prevent the aerosolised medication from getting to the irritated mucus membrane, so it can't be used to relieve symptoms once they start.

I wear a single layer cloth mask for running as that's where I suffer the worst. Makes it really hot and heavy but still infinitely better than wheezing the whole time.

I don't really need it for cycling but it's tempting for combating exhaust fumes too.
