A member asked:
Can you take benadryl (diphenhydramine) while taking claritin?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: There is no interaction. Since Claritin does not cause drowsiness side effects should not be a problem. However, if Claritin is not solving the problem (hives or nasal allergies), alternatives such as Allegra or zyrtec should be considered.
