What Experts Say

Loratadine blocks histamine at the source, stopping allergic reactions before they cause symptoms. Unlike older antihistamines, it doesn't cross into the brain, so it won't make you sleepy.

Doctors recommend this for seasonal and year-round allergies because it works well and is safe. One tablet in the morning keeps allergies controlled all day. Most people feel better within an hour or two.

This is one of the safest allergy medicines available. It works best when taken regularly, even if you're having good days. If allergies change, talk to your doctor.
