Anyone with allergies knows how difficult it can be to sleep when you’re dealing with annoying symptoms like a runny nose, sneezing, congestion, and itchy eyes—but thankfully, the best hypoallergenic pillows can help you get more comfort while sleeping.

“People wake up with allergy symptoms because all night while you’re sleeping, you’re breathing certain things in [from your pillow],” says Purvi Parikh, M.D., an allergist and immunologist with NYU Langone Health and the Allergy and Asthma Network. Common allergens like dust mites, pet dander, and mold can easily live on your pillow, triggering your symptoms all night.

Fortunately, using a hypoallergenic pillow can help. Designed to reduce dust mite exposure, these pillows have special casings that act as a barrier between you and common allergens, explains Dr. Parikh. They’re also made from different materials than the typical padding found in many pillows, says Brynn Everist, M.D., a physician at Kansas City Allergy & Asthma Associates and a member of the American Academy of Allergy, Asthma, and Immunology. But when it comes to picking the right hypoallergenic pillow, it can be easy to get stumped—which is why we rounded up the best ones right here.
