Equate Non-Drowsy All Day Allergy Relief Loratadine 10 mg Tablets Antihistamine, 45 Count, Compare to Claritin® 24 Hour Active Ingredient

I've been using equate loratadine 10mg tablets for my hayfever for a number of years and they've worked well for me. The key I was told was to take before allergy season starts so you prevent symptoms before they occur - which can be pretty miserable. If you suffer any health conditions or you are taking any prescription meds, check with your doctor first before you start taking any thing new to make sure they are safe for you to do so. Other then that I recommend them.

This is the same medicine as Claritin, except it's a generic. Why waste money for a name brand when the store brand is the same? I've used loratadine as London as the generic was legal. Before that I used Claritin with a prescription. It's helps my allergies better than any other medicine.

I'll be honest - I was skeptical about this product. Allergy medicine can be so expensive, but this is so affordable! It works just as well as every single name brand I've used in the past (which is almost all of them, trust me). Save some money and get the same relief from awful allergy symptoms!

my Dr recommended claritan for chemo treatment (don't know why) because I was having undesirable side effects. I believe the main ingredient the Dr was looking for losatran, which is Claritin. did some checking, Equate has same ingredients but st a much lower price. Dr was pleased

We were looking for an effective allergy relief tablet at a fair price that does the job. Tried others but happy to report that Equate's Non-Drowsy All Day Allergy 10 mg Tablets does the job to relieve the pain %26 suffering from allergies and not break the bank. Give them a try!

I have allergies and was taking Claritin. This is the same active ingredient as the brand name at considerable savings. I have hypertension and take blood pressure medication. This does not measurably affect my blood pressure. It also doesn't affect my borderline type 2 diabetes. No heartburn, reflux, or aftertaste. I am allergic to some things, the fillers seem to be inert. I appreciate the one a day extended release. I am celiac and allergic to oats. I do not have any reactions to these. Some other medications I have had issues with the fillers… I appreciate the large amount of pills per bottle and at a more reasonable price, this two pack of bottles will last more than a year, so I won't run out as fast. I recommend this medication as a cost savings if you are taking Claritin.

Me and my husband both have allergies this time of year and are supposed to take a pill once a day. We started taking these and they work amazing no more runny nose or sneezing or watering eyes. The morning are always bad waking up and coughing your head off but since taking them we havent had any of that. We will be taking these from now on..

Back in the day, we hay-fever sufferers used to PRAY for the day that Claritin -- which was only available to the rich and the Big Pharma suck-ups (meaning; people who love to truck to the doctor's office all the time) -- would make its way to the open market, meaning to OTC status. Well, guess what? NOW IT'S HERE. Loratadine is the EXACT ingredient in what used to be prescription-only Claritin, and I ADORE popping one of these in the a.m. when I wake up with the sneezes, 'cause I HATE THAT. This is a 24-hour drug: You take one pill and it Lasts All Day. I love me my OTC Loratidine 10mgs! DO NOT MISTAKE THIS FOR A 'STANDARD' anti-histamine, because Loratidine kicks benadryl and all its hideous permutations squarely to the curb. Who wants to take an anti-histamine if it's going to keep you in bed all day long??? This is NOT a soporific drug! - Eli.

Okay to be completely honest. I use the equate Zyrtec. But my new vet has told me that they no longer recommend Benadryl for dogs allergies. I gave my last dog's Benadryl for years instead of the costly dog prescription allergy medication. But the new medication vet's now recommend is Claritin. Which this is the generic. At CVS their generic is outrageously overpriced for 10.. Even on sale. But I needed them so I bought them one time from CVS. Never again.. Vets that don't won't to break you up any worse. They will try and find a less expensive alternative to the one “real” dog allergy pill. This pill is safe for dogs. I don't know about cats. But check first with your vet. Because the dosage is so low. For example, these pills come in 10mg dosages. My dog weighs about 9 lbs. therefore I give him a quarter pill. I read a 25 lb dachshund gets a 5 mg dosage. That was what I based mine own. The vet said use them but didn't tell me how much of the tablet to use. I went with half of a 5. But I'm used to giving dogs medication. BUT DO NOT LISTEN TO ME. I JUST HAVE HAD TO DEAL WITH ALOT OF DOG ALLERGIES. So if your dog has allergies and is rolling around going crazy. Ask your vet if this could be an alternative to that bottle of $50 /month pills?

It could be that after long term use, I could have gotten immune. Seems to me when they changed the shape from teardrop to circle, the effect did not last 24 hours. However, for the cost, small sized pill and twin pack offering, it is still worth recommending to others.
