Claritin Frequently Asked QuestionsWhat is Claritin?
Claritin provides effective relief from the symptoms of seasonal allergies: itchy, watery eyes; itchy palate; sneezing; and runny nose. Claritin is also effective in relieving the symptoms of itching associated with chronic hives. Unlike all current over-the-counter and some prescription antihistamines (which can make people drowsy), Claritin has no drowsy side effects so you feel better, not medicated! In studies, the incidence of drowsiness with Claritin was similar to that of placebo (sugar pill) at the recommended dose. Drowsiness may occur if you take more than the recommended dose.
