Desloratadine for Allergic Rhinitis "This is by far one of the most useless drugs I have taken to treat seasonal allergies. Not only didn’t it work, but it made me feel very sedated and dizzy, with a severe increase in anxiety. One thing to remember is that it’s basically the same as loratadine but at a huge price. I returned to my usual Reactine (cetirizine), and I feel much better! It works every time without any side effects. For better allergy control, I use cetirizine with Flonase nasal spray, and I have a complete remission of all my seasonal allergies, including my runny nose, itchy throat, sneezing, and watery eyes, and the effect lasts 24 hours."

For Allergic Rhinitis "I’m very sensitive to any types of medications. Although it did take away my allergy symptoms, it caused me the most insane anxiety that I had to leave work. My heart was racing, shaking, stomach upset, loss of appetite, tiredness, yet I felt zapped at the same time."
