Customer Reviews of ClaritinŽ Non-Drowsy - 90 tablets
Customer Review: Claritin's Active Ingriedient is Loratadine, an Antihistamine
Summary: 3 Stars
Claritin (Loratadine) is an antihistamine that is used for typical allergy symptoms, such as a stuffy or runny nose, itchy watery eyes, scratchy throat (due to allergies), and rashes, itching, and hives. (It can also be used in some cases to limit asthma attacks).
Since it is a brand-name product, it will be much more expensive than the generic equivalent (Loratadine). I prefer the generic.
Antihistamines block the release of histamine, a naturally occurring substance in the body that produces all the allergy symptoms we want to get rid of.
There are several antihistamines you can purchase over the counter, Claritin (Loratadine) is a second generation antihistamine, and Benadryl (diphenhydramine) is the older first generation product. Claritin will be more expensive, as it is the newer of the two. Loratadine is also available as a cheaper generic product and is just as effective as the Brand name products of Claritin and Alavert.
The usual dose of Loratadine is 10 mg a day. This offers an advantage over the first generation antihistamines (Benadryl), in that they are dosed every 8 hours. The main and most significant advantage of Loratadine over the first generation antihistamines is that Loratadine will not cause drowsiness and has less overall side effects and less adverse interactions with other medications (and alcohol).
People with liver disease should discuss the use of Loratadine with their doctor. Pregnant women should avoid using Loratadine as studies have shown a risk to the fetus.
Claritin (Loratadine) is very effective in treating allergy symptoms. I like the non-sedating quality and the once daily dosing.
