Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

* Healthy, ambulatory male and female subjects between 18 to 65 years of age
* Self-reported seasonal allergic rhinitis to ragweed pollen for at least 2 years prior to screening
* Documented positive skin prick test response to common ragweed (ambrosia artemisiifolia) pollen at screening or within the previous 12 months conducted at research site (prick with wheal diameter \>= 5 mm larger than the diluent response)
* In order to qualify to continue to treatment phase, at the end of priming phase (which is 3 hours), Total Symptom Score (TSS) has to be ≥ 7, with nasal congestion score alone ≥ 2 and change in peak nasal inspiratory flow (PNIF) has to be ≥ 15% from pre-prime baseline;
* Subject is willing to stop use of current decongestant and allergy medications at the start of the washout period prior to priming and during the trial
* At the discretion of the investigators, subjects may be considered with self-reported mild intermittent asthma (Using \<=2 doses of SABA (short-acting beta agonists) per week) or exercise-induced asthma
* Subject is free of any clinically significant disease that required a physician´s care and/or would interfere with trial evaluations, procedures or participation
* Subject is able to repeatedly and reliably perform PNIF measurements and must achieve PNIF value of \>=60L/min at screening
* Subject must be capable of reading English and willing to participate in all aspects of the study

Exclusion Criteria
