Change From Baseline in Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS) Score at Endpoint During the Two-week Treatment PeriodBaseline and at endpoint of the 2 week treatment periodThe Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS) is the criterion standard for measuring daytime sleepiness in adults. Subjects are asked to rate the chances of dozing off or falling asleep in eight situations encountered in daily life on a scale of 0 to 3, with scores ranging from 0 to 24. A score \>= 8 indicates sleepiness. Endpoint is defined as the last available postbaseline measurement during the two week treatment period.

Change From Baseline in Rhinoconjunctivitis Quality of Life Questionnaire (RQLQ) Practical Problems Score at Endpoint During the Two-week Treatment Period

The RQLQ is a validated instrument composed of 28 questions covering 7 dimensions of health. Each question is scored on a scale of 0 to 6 (in which 0 = not troubled and 6 = extremely troubled), and the mean value for each health dimension is calculated. Endpoint is defined as the last available postbaseline measurement during the two week treatment period.

The Work Productivity and Activity Impairment-Allergy Specific (WPAI-AS) has been validated to measure generic and allergy-specific performance impairment of work and classroom productivity and of regular daily activity. Higher scores (0% to 100%) indicate greater impairment and a negative change from baseline indicates improvement.

Sleepiness According to Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS) Score at Baseline and at Endpoint During the Two-week Treatment Period

The Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS) is the criterion standard for measuring daytime sleepiness in adults. Subjects are asked to rate the chances of dozing off or falling asleep in eight situations encountered in daily life on a scale of 0 to 3, with scores ranging from 0 to 24. A score \>= 8 indicates sleepiness. Endpoint is defined as the last available postbaseline measurement during the two week treatment period.

Time frame: Baseline and at endpoint of the 2 week treatment period
