A member asked:
How long does it take childrens claritin (loratadine) to work?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
1-2 weeks: If there are absolutely no improvements in about a week, i tend to switch people over to zyrtec. It can be a little sedating for some, but I have found it to be much more effective than claritin (loratadine).
