Claritin or its generic alternative Loratadine is an over-the-counter antihistamine medication that works well to relieve allergy symptoms. It may be used alone or in combination with other medications to treat hives and chronic skin reactions. Claritin is indicated for the management of hay fever and other upper respiratory allergies.

Claritin belongs to a class of drugs known as antihistamine which used to reduce the effects of histamine, a natural chemical produced in the body. Histamine is responsible for causing symptoms such as sneezing, itching, watery eyes, and runny nose. This medication is used to treat the above-mentioned symptoms caused by hay fever, hives, skin rash, cold or other allergies.

Claritin contains the active ingredient Loratadine, which works to reduce symptoms such as sneezing, congestion, runny nose, and itching caused by several types of allergies. Claritin is a non-prescription drug, making it easily accessible for people with allergies.

Claritin is available in tablet form, which can typically be chewed and taken once daily with or without food. It is important to adhere to the instructions for loratadine use as indicated on the package label or as directed by a physician, and to not take more or less of the medication or take it more frequently than recommended. Taking an excessive dose of loratadine may lead to drowsiness.

The recommended dose of Claritin for adults and children aged 6 and above is 10 mg orally once daily. The maximum daily dose should not exceed 10 mg. For children aged 2 to 6, the recommended dose is 5 mg orally once daily with the maximum daily dose not exceeding 5 mg. For children under 2 years of age, it is recommended that you consult a healthcare provider for the appropriate dose.
