i was wondering if the pill marked with gg 296 contains pseudoephedrine or not some medications with the marks gg do contain and i want to make sure ## No, it does not. This tablet is manufactured by Sandoz Pharmaceuticals and they list it as containing 10mgs of Loratadine, which is an antihistamine, it's a generic or store brand of Claritin, which is available over the counter. The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness and dry mouth. Is there anything else I can help with? ## How many pills are recommended to take at once for when you first feel the symptoms of seasonal allergies

I wanted to find out if this has Sudafed in it and if it has to have a prescription to get it? ## Hi famous, How are you? To answer your question, Claritin (also known as Loratadine) does not contain any Sudafed (Pseudoephedrine) in and of itself. However, it is "available in combination" with that specific medication as well as others. It will also require a prescription from your doctor here in the US, but I'm not aware of the laws in other countries. I hope this helps!

Hi, I've been taking clarinase and I want to know if I can take lorinase for throat pain? ## They both contain Loratadine and Pseudoephedrine, so neither one is going to help with throat pain. They are most commonly used to treat allergy and/or cold symptoms. The U.S. FDA lists the typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, insomnia, and nervousness. Is it actual pain, or just a sore throat?

Can I also take Claritin D medicine with dimetapp cold and allergy together? ## Hi Anne, From what I could gather, there are no drug interactions listed between the active ingredients in Claritin-D (loratadine + pseudoephedrine) and Dimetapp Cold & Allergy (brompheniramine + phenylephrine). So with that said, you shouldn't experience any problems taking the two medications together. However, I would always recommend consulting with your doctor first before making any changes to your current regimen. This way if certain side effects do occur, he or she would at least be aware of the situation ahead of time. I hope this helps!
