Question 1

cani take benadryl (diphenhydramine) with loratadine?

Accepted Answer

Probably yes.: Many people report their 'daily' non-sedating antihistamine in the am does not provide relief until next am. So, if no concerns for gu/heart/bp/med-conflict issues, then they often take a 'sedating' antihistamine at night for continued symptom relief and 'bonus' of sleep aid effect.

Question 2

i'm 28 weeks is loratadine ok to take?

Accepted Answer

Yes: Claritin (loratadine) and Zyrtec (cetirizine) are pregnancy category B medications which means that animal reproduction studies have failed to demonstrate a risk to the fetus, but there are no adequate and well-controlled studies in pregnant women. That said, I frequently use these medications with my pregnant patients. Allegra (fexofenadine) is category C so avoid this medication if possible.

Question 3

can you take valium and claritin?

Accepted Answer

: Since Claritin is a nondrowsy antihistamine there should be no significant interaction. Your pharmacist can validate this advice.

Question 4

could a 1 yr old take loratadine?

Accepted Answer

Not approved: Cetirizine (zyrtec) is approved to be used in infants over 6 months of age.  Consult with your baby's doc.

Question 5

is it safe to take loratadine with nyquil?

Accepted Answer

Yes: No problem at all with the interactions.

Question 6

can i take diphenhydramine with loratadine?

Accepted Answer

Yes: Antihistamine is safe even with 4x the average daily dose.  The major side effects would be dry mouth and drowsiness ( the latter much less common if one uses the non-sedating type).

Question 7

how long does it take for claritin-d to work.

Accepted Answer

1 to 3 hours: Claritin d is a combination antihistamine [claritin= loratadine] and d= decongestant pseudoephedrine.  This product is rapidly absorbed then metabolized to the active product with relief beginning within 1 to 3 hours.

Question 8

can i take nurofen with claritin (loratadine)?

Accepted Answer

Yes: Nurofen (ibuprofen) is a NSAID medication used to treat pain, fever, etc.  Claritin (loratadine) is a new generation antihistamine used for treating allergies and hives.  At usual doses, there is typically no problem with taking these at the same time.

Question 9

can i take nyquil and claritin (loratadine) d?

Accepted Answer

Yes: You cantake claritind during daytime  and nyquil at nightime. For few days only. If sx persist then you need to see doctor.

Question 10

can you take nyquil and claritin (loratadine)?

Accepted Answer

Antihistamines: Both medications have antihisstamines. Not sure what you are treating, but if you need both on the same day, then it may be better to see an allergist and get another type of medication to control your symptoms. You should be able to take them together but over time the strategy is not effective.
