Dr. Doanh Nguyen, md, faaaai answered

Specializes in Allergy and Immunology

Meds adjustment: You can take the same Claritin (loratadine) dose but space it out every other day instead of everyday if you have liver failure. If you have chronic liver disease but your liver functions well, Claritin (loratadine) can be taken as regular doses and frequency.
