| 2 | mild to moderate seasonal allergies | i feel fatigued during the day, and i get exhausted by evening, my arms and legs often feel weak, and sometimes i feel like I can't get a deep breath. i didn't experience insomnia, i just feel extremely tired, kind of depressed and am often impatient/on edge. gave me an extremely dry nose, cracked and painful nasal membranes, i need to use saline spray to relieve. | for an OTC med, there should be more extensive warnings on the package. before i google'd this, i thought i was either going nuts or had a more serious medical problem. i really don't feel like myself - people should know that this can happen so they don't panic. | F | 39 | 21 days | 7/5/2007 | 2 | Seasonal allergies | I've got the lovely seasonal allergies, sigh. Figured I'd give Claritin-D a try. Soon after taking it, my nose began to run... great, the "D" part is working. Fell asleep in the late afternoon for about an hour... the "claritin" part kicked in! The snoz finally quit running by that time. ZING! I'm wide awake after only a couple of hours of sleep, let's see - I got up at 2 this morning. It's now 4:10 in the morning and the head aches. Yep, the "D" part is hard at work. No signs of "zzzzz" coming my way - probably not until I'm sitting in a meeting later this morning. At this point, I think I'd rather be in la-la land, sound asleep for more than a couple of hours! Pity the people in my house when they wake up - who knows what kind of a creature I'll be by that time. | This stuff affects each person differently. If I could take it back and get a refund, I would... it's way over-priced! | F | 47 | 1 days | 6/25/2007 | 2 | Sinus Infection | Total loss of appetite, jittery, tight chest, insomnia. Why don't they market this stuff as a diet pill? It makes me completely lose interest in food...not my usual state. Did clear my sinus but I don't think I can take another day of this zombie-like existence. | Forget about sleeping, too. | F | 41 | 2 days | 6/4/2007 | 2 | allergies | Severe insomnia, sever dry mouth - and was still stuffy! | I only took it for a week, but didn't sleep the entire week and drank so much water due to the dry mouth that i was constantly in the bathroom. It didn't help clear my sinuses and was still very stuffy - had to use nasal spray at night especially just to breathe. | F | 38 | 7 days | 3/30/2007 | 2 | Allergies | This was my first experience taking Claritin D. The downside is I haven't slept in over 20 hours, severe insomnia. The upside is that I'm still not tired. | I experienced a moderate decrease in my allergy symptoms. As others noted I also can't get enough to drink. If I decide to take it again it will not be before bedtime. | M | 50 | 1 days | 3/23/2007 | 2 | Spring Allergies | Insomnia,vivid dreams and restless sleep for the couple of hours I can sleep every night, no appetite, chills (feels like I have the flu), irritation, feeling detached and anxious. | I took this medication last year and sought out a therapist. It got that bad and I did not know WHAT was wrong with me. I was not sleeping, eating and was irritated and anxious all the time. I felt sick, completely out of it and exhausted. After I stopped taking the medication though after allergy season ended all of my negative symptoms and feelings stopped completely and I felt normal again. The therapist attributed it to my sleeping and eating normally. A couple of days ago I resumed it again for allergy season and the same symptoms have returned. Starts with chills, fatigue and feeling detached and anxious. Now I have not been sleeping, having restless sleep with very weird dreams if I do sleep for an hour or two and I have no desire to eat anything. Since I have gone 11 months feeling completely normal (happy, healthy with no problems whatsoever) and these symptoms are just now returning... I know now it is this medicine. I WISH I would have made the connection last year! I never | F | 30 | 5 days | 3/23/2007 | 2 | Allergies | None | It did not work. At all. If anything, my symptoms have worsened after trying Claritin out. | M | 32 | 5 days | 3/20/2007 | 2 | Sinus Infections | After about one month, my hands swelled up and turned red. I think it might have sulfate in it, and I think I am allgeric to sulfates. | The medicine seemed to clear up my sinsus, but I think that I couldn't sleep well the entire time I was on it. I usually have no problem sleeping, but with this medicine I would have a hard time falling asleep and would wake up about four or five times a night. | F | 48 | 30 days | 2/21/2007 | 2 | Allergy | insomnia, heart flutters like too much coffee, accumulative effect, nausea, sweating | Not worth the weightloss, allergy relief, nor feeling great while on it. Can't sleep--lightheaded | F | 45 | 14 days | 1/14/2007 | 2 | allergies | Insomnia, anxiety, back pain, strange lucid dreams, dry mouth (I couldn't drink enough water) | Normally when I have allergies I take a generic brand of sudafed. I had no idea how strong a drug Claritin was, and took it at my doctor's suggestion. I will never take this drug again, I can't believe that I have only had 2-3 hours of sleep. | F | 31 | 1 days | 9/5/2006 | 2 | nasal congestion | sleeplessness | Ok, it's 3:30 am... I've gotten about one hour of sleep. I took Claritin D-12 hour to help with nighttime congestion. It definitely helped me breath better, but sleep is another story. I decided to go online at this lovely hour to see if it might be the cause (I'm up anyway). I won't be taking Claritin D- 12 hour at night again. | M | 28 | 1 days | 8/22/2006 | 2 | Seasonal allergies | Abdominal pain, frequent urination and bowel movements, dizziness, nervousness, general weakness. | I'm in my third day since last dose and still not feeling well -- feel like I have a case of the flu. | M | 66 | 60 days | 6/21/2006 | 2 | allergies | I have been taking Clariton for 12 Days. A few days ago I started experiencing headaches, nervousness, anxiety, the jitters and insomnia. I am glad I found this site... I will stop taking Clariton. | F | 40 | 12 days | 6/13/2006 | 2 | seasonal allergies (spring) | sleeplessnses, anxiety, paranoia, weird dreams | It cleared up my congestion and relieved other symptoms, but I really freaked out at 4 AM. Paranoid, anxious disoriented. Will not take again, ever. | M | 40 | 2 days | 3/15/2006 | 2 | seasonal allergies | restlessness the first night maybe 3 hours of sleep. wide awake, i was actually happy when my alarm went off. increased heart rate seriously it felt like meth amphetamine. and i should know. my mom said i should stay on it and that maybe the side affects should go away. i also had VERY thick mucus. loss of appetite. cant beleive its legal... can you say the new aderol? | F | 17 | 1 days | 2/15/2006 | 2 | allergic reaction | terrible insomnia, constipation, and erectile dysfunction...which of course made me quite depressed. | well, it did clear up the allergy situation, but the side effects are indeed alarming. i went online because it occurred to me that the reason why i couldn't function as i would normally, might be due the drug. i will not be taking this drug, i can't mess around with anything that may throw off my libido...definitely gets in your head. | M | 30 | 1 days | 1/14/2006 | 2 | allergies | insomnia | cleared me right up in about 10 minutes but experienced extreme dry mouth. Only got about 1 hour of sleep - kept me up ALL night and that's after taking 2 (twice the dosage) of Melatonin (natural sleep aid). My heart and my mind were racing all night. I'll switch back to the 12 hour pill. | F | 26 | 1 days | 1/9/2006 | 2 | ALLERGIES | VERY bad side effects. read down the column to get a good idea. it also killed my sex life. | The pseudoephedrine causes dry mouth, throat, and eyes. Well i have news for you because us females have yet another membrane that needs to stay moist. I may not have been stiffling, tearing, and have post nasal drip...but i embarassingly had vaginal dryness too. within 3 days of stopping, most side effects subsided. within 1 week, all were lost. | F | 30 | 10 days | 7/2/2005 | 2 | allergies | Severe contipation and abdomenal pain both of which stopped within 24 hours of stopping the drug | My allergies were not helped at all | F | 22 | 2 weeks | 5/19/2005 | 2 | Allergies (Seasonal) | Insomnia- waking up multiple times during the night. | Worked great on controlling allergies, but I felt un-rested after the night due to the insomnia associated with it. | F | 21 | 9 days | 4/17/2005 |
