... Claritin-D became available over the counter. As I have a great prescription drug plan, (3 months for $5), I have been trying to find a prescription replacement (primarily for allergy/post-nasal drip due to allergies), or, a less expensive (than Claritin-D 12-hour) OTC. How good is this stuff, and, do you feel it works as well, or better, than Claritin-D?

Lodrane 24D contains the combination of brompheniramine and pseudoephedrine - an antihistamine and nasal decongestant.
It should work equally as well to clear post-nasal drip due to allergy.
It could make you a little more drowsy than the Claritin-D so just something to look out for. All the best.
