Accepted Answer

Seasonal allergies: Clarinex is another form of the antihistamine medicine-claritin. The generic name is loratidine. It helps with allergies, like hay fever.

If you take claritin-your body converts it into clarinex. Another example is Nexium (esomeprazole) and prilosec.

Follow manufacturer: We all know that medications last beyond their expiration dates. But who would pay for studies to check this? Not the manufacturer who has an interest in you buying more drugs.

Do you mean benadryl (diphenhydramine): Benadryl (diphenhydramine) is an antihistamine, but can be very sedating.

These are all available in various over the counter preparations. Please be sure to follow the package directions.
