A member asked:

Has taking chlor-trimeton been just as effective for anyone?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Effective: Chlor-trimeton is the brand name for chlorpheneramine. This is a very effective anti-allergic pill. Its one side effect is sleepiness which varies from one person to another. It is equally, maybe more effective than the prescription, branded types which only have the advantage of causing less sleepiness.
