A member asked:
My husband is experiencing a severe hay fever episode, i gave him loratadine this morning and i wanna give him cetirizine at night to control his symptoms, is that safe ? thanks?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It is almost a double dose but not dangerous because he takes the extra dose before bed time but he should not expect a significant improvement because these drugs have long half life.
