Comment:
Either I had poison ivy or poison oak, in my EYES. This helped the itching and eventually it went away. Also was taking Hydroxyzine so don't know which helped the most.

Comment:
I take Loratadine Oral 10 mg for seasonal allergies, because my snoring was waking me. I've found that the manufacturer matters. I don't have adverse side effects using Claritin 24 hr. I've found that some generics work well without adverse side effects. Other generics have caused me to be drowsy and extremely irritable.

I started giving my 2yr old this medicine on 3/30/2010 and about a week later he got very mean and aggressive half of the time and the other half of the time he is crying and whining. He is usualy a happy boy with a few temper tantrums but this is crazy!

I took this for three days because my ear was sore and my doctor prescribe it. It worked but I became quite sleepy and my eyes seemed very tired. After quitting for one day my ear is OK and I am back to normal.
