This medication is used to treat seasonal
allergy symptoms such as sneezing; runny nose; and itchy, watery eyes.
How to Use
When taken at the recommended dose, once a day CLARITIN does not
cause drowsiness which is common with all over-the-counter and some
prescription antihistamines. (Drowsiness rates vary among products.) All
antihistamines that cause drowsiness must caution users about operating motor
vehicles or heavy machinery. CLARITIN, on the other hand, is not
required to carry such warnings.
The ability to control your symptoms without feeling drowsy is just one of the
reasons why CLARITIN has been the #1 prescribed antihistamine since
September 1994.1
Possible Side Effects

headache, drowsiness, fatigue, and dry mouth.
