A member asked:

Can loratadine cause weight gain or bloated stomach?

A doctor has provided 1 answer
Dr. John Chiu answered

Weight gain: Antihistamine, usually the older ones, may be associated with weight gain. Loratadine in the recommended dose usually does not cause it however. I have not heard of this causing bloating which is more likely from something else but this is another complicated subject.
