For Nasal Congestion "The side effects were/are horrible. I took this 30 hours ago, and I still have anxiety. I didn't sleep the whole night! I feel like I was on drugs! I will never take this again. The pseudoephedrine is too stimulating."

For Nasal Congestion "I took the Kroger version of the Claritin D, and I have slept only 4 hours in 2 days. The medicine definitely works for the post-nasal drip and congestion, but I cannot sleep!!! I'm going to try taking it at 5 am instead of 5 pm."

For Allergic Rhinitis "My 13-yr-old has seasonal allergies (spring), which, of course, vary each year. This year is worse - more congestion, coughing, and itchy throat. Normally, Claritin does the trick, but I tried Claritin-D 24 hr. It helped with the additional symptoms, but on the second day, my child had trouble sleeping, complained that the heart beat was faster, and was anxious. After reading other reviews of loratadine/pseudoephedrine, I realized these are indeed side effects and will have to go back to regular Claritin (without the pseudoephedrine)."

Loratadine / pseudoephedrine for Allergic Rhinitis "Very effective at eliminating allergies, but will keep you awake all night long. I took the 24-hour one in the early morning, 7:30 am, and laid in bed for 5 hours before I could fall asleep."

Loratadine / pseudoephedrine for Allergic Rhinitis "Great at eliminating allergies, but also eliminates sleep. I haven't slept in 4 nights, and after googling, now I see why! Not worth it."

Loratadine / pseudoephedrine for Allergic Rhinitis "The worst medicine ever tried, shaking, anxiety, heart palpitations, insomnia. Regular Claritin is much better, the pseudoephedrine is a dangerous drug."
