A member asked:
I'm experiencing severe hay fever symptoms, took one 10mg loratadine tab, got insufficient relief- can i take 5 or 10mg more?

You can, but...: You are unlikely to receive significant additional benefit from increasing the dose of loratadine in a case like this. Antihistamines are often inadequate to control the inflammation associated with moderate rhinitis. Furthermore, loratadine can take hours to reach its full effect.
