A member asked:

I took loratadine 10mg 4 hours ago and accidentally took another now. will i be ok?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

YES: Very safe; however since you doubled the dose you may experience dry mouth, blurring of vision or tiredness ( rare). I suggest 8-10 glasses of fluids daily to flush this through your system.
