Uses of Claritin
Claritin Tablets are an over-the-counter antihistamine medication that contains loratadine as the active ingredient. It is commonly used to treat symptoms of allergies such as sneezing, runny nose, itchy/watery eyes, and itching caused by hives. Loratadine is a second-generation antihistamine, which generally causes less drowsiness compared to first-generation antihistamines.
Precautions and Warnings
Allergic Reactions: Do not use Claritin Tablets if you are allergic to loratadine or any other components in the medication. Signs of an allergic reaction may include rash, itching, swelling, or trouble breathing.
Liver or Kidney Issues: If you have liver or kidney problems, particularly severe liver disease, consult your healthcare provider before using Claritin, as the dosage may need adjustment.
Pregnancy and Breastfeeding: Consult your doctor before using Claritin during pregnancy or while breastfeeding. While it is considered to be generally safe, it’s always best to seek medical advice.
Drug Interactions: Inform your doctor if you are taking other medications, especially any other antihistamines or medications that could interact with loratadine. Some drugs, like certain antifungals or antibiotics, may affect how loratadine works.
Drowsiness: Loratadine is less likely to cause drowsiness compared to older antihistamines, but it can affect some individuals. Be cautious when driving or engaging in activities that require full alertness if you experience drowsiness or dizziness.
Use in Children: Claritin Tablets are generally safe for children over the age of 2 years, with a lower dose (5 mg) typically recommended for younger children. Always follow your healthcare provider’s recommendations for dosing in children.

Will the pills or packaging be different when I order from YouDrugstore?
If you usually take a brand name pill and have instead ordered a generic drug, your pills may look different. Although they may look different, generic versions of a drug have the same active ingredients and work in exactly the same way as the brand-name medication. The appearance of medication or packaging may also differ from country to country, even though the strength is the same. For example, Celexa 20MG is usually a peach-colored pill, but in Canada it is white and slightly smaller, even though the same company manufactures both pills. Two different brands of generic medication may also look different because they are made by different manufacturers, although they are equivalent in every other way.
How does medication from Canada differ from medication in other regions of the world?
Canada has high standards and regulations governing the manufacturing of medication and health products and the licensing of doctors and pharmacists. Despite some possible cosmetic differences, medication from Canada is the same quality and strength as medication from other areas like the United States.
Why are prices on YouDrugstore different from prices at other pharmacies?
Unlike some regions of the world, Canadian medication prices are regulated with limits on how much patients have to pay for their prescriptions. This means that Canadian drug costs are often lower than other regions.
