How to treat mild cat allergies? is just taking claritin (loratadine) or zyrtec helpful enough?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends: If your symptoms are adequately controlled, then yes. However, if one of your symptoms is nasal congestion, then you nay want to try Claritin d, Allegra d, or zyrtec d. Avoidance of cats is best, if possible.
