A member asked:
They say aerius is non-drowsy but it does make me drowsy in an hour while zyrtec (cetirizine) has no adverse effect on me. is this even normal?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Normal for you.: Everyone is a little different. While desloratadine does not make most people drowsy it seems to have that effect on you. This may be normal.
