Guest guest Posted May 8, 2006 Report Share Posted May 8, 2006 I was having terrible allergies, until I found Claritin. It has been like a miracle for me and it doesn't make you drowsy or hyper. I get results within 30 minutes or less. I don't know how I made it before this medicine came along. I use the generic of it that Wal-mart carries. Judy Haven't had a cold in about 4 years now, but these allergies are killing me. <BEG> !! !! Lisa Marie>> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 9, 2006 Report Share Posted May 9, 2006 Really? When I was on claritin a few years ago, I was zonking out so much that I begged my doctor to take me off of it. Of course, it did wonders for my allergies, though! --April Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 9, 2006 Report Share Posted May 9, 2006 Well they have non -drowsy now and over the counter. Maybe way back when you took it they didn't. I was living on benedryl before this, which was working and zonked me out. I've been taking it for about 4 years. At first I had to take it everyday for about 4 months. Now I just take it occasionally when I need it. It is amazing and made such a difference for me. I told my husband before this medicine, that I was going to look like an old lady before my time, from all the scratching and rubbing I didn't to my eyes and the watering was just terrible. Now it is gone within 30 minutes from when I take it. Judy Really? When I was on claritin a few years ago, I was zonking out so much that I begged my doctor to take me off of it.

Guest guest Posted May 9, 2006 Report Share Posted May 9, 2006 claritin doesn't do me very well, but it's about all I can take due to my heart condition and pregnancy. Right now I take 4 a day and instead of swallowing I chew them up and let them dissolve under my tongue and my allergies are somewhat bearable. I stay awake with it. once in a while I have taken claritin D and immediately slept for hours and felt groggy for the rest of the day. meg April wrote: > Really?

Guest guest Posted May 9, 2006 Report Share Posted May 9, 2006 Allergra is a perscription allergy medicine that I take sometimes also, and it doesn't cause drowsiness. I had no luck with singular. It was as if I had taken nothing. Zyrtec does make me sleepy. Wow 4 a day...........Goodness. Your allergies must be awful. Poor thing. I hope your pregnancy goes well and your heart conditions heals. I haven't taken the claritin D before. Thanks for the info.

Guest guest Posted May 10, 2006 Report Share Posted May 10, 2006 That's true. When I was taking claritin it was only available by prescription. I'll have to check out the over-the-counter version. --April , " wwjd " <jtwigg wrote: > > Well they have non -drowsy now and over the counter. Maybe way back when you took it they didn't.
