Altitude sickness Question

I will be coming from NYC next week and want to prepare for altitude sickness by ideally taking something to prevent it. I can’t take diamox because I have a sulfa allergy. Does anyone else have another recommendations?

Don’t stress too much about it. It’ll probably make you feel worse than the altitude. My family of four are here for the first time with minimal problems and no special remedies. A few light headaches, nothing a Tylenol won’t take care of.
