| 1 | runny nose..congestion | Unable to sleep...heart beating fast..can't eat..dry mouth..sore throat..feeling upset, probably from lack of sleep. | I've only taken 2 pills in 2 days and haven't slept yet..Also noticed my hair shedded quite a bit today and couldn't figure out what was going on until I found this website and read about this happening to others..I just threw my box in the trash!! | F | 52 | 2 days | 3/1/2008 | 1 | Allergies | I began taking Claritin a few years ago and during that period of time I've had noticeable thinning of the hair. I was shedding unusual amounts of dry hair and losing clumps of it whenever I'd wash it, but since I never read hair loss among the side effects of this medication, I assumed it was related to stress or something else. After doing some research a few months ago, I decided to stop taking the medication and I've already noticed a significant reduction in hair loss. | The medication did not always work for my allergy symptoms. For this reason I do not consider Claritin worth the loss of my hair. | F | 27 | 4 years | 1/10/2008 | 1 | Allergies | Total loss of sleep after taking one a day for 2 days, Shortness of breath ,Tremours, Saddness from lack of sleep, Mini seizures..I took one today ,I didn't sleep last night ..and it's 11:30 now. | Pleas ebe careful with this product ,I am going to start cutting mine in half | F | 28 | 2 days | 1/5/2008 | 1 | ear pressure | Clariton D 12hr. Dry mouth, increased sinus congestion, thick mucus in throat. 6th hour no appetite, difficulty breathing. 7th hour took Benadryl to stop allergic reaction of throat closing. Restless legs, insomnia, constipation. | I can take pseudoephedrine without anaphylaxis. Must be the Loratadine. Will not take it again. | F | 51 | 1 days | 12/29/2007 | 1 | allergies - doctor said take every | left hand , TIC in index finger , drives me crazy ... very anoying. first it felt like a heardtbeat or contact pulse all thru the day. TIC is uncontrollable. | Who can help? Any other comments, common experinces with TIC in hands, tremors or shaking of fingers. (difficult to explain) | M | 35 | 365 days | 12/26/2007 | 1 | seasonal allergies | anxiety, insomnia, hyperactivity, paranoia, dizziness, rapid heartbeat, shortness of breath | DID NOT WORK AT ALL. After all those symptoms, my allergies remained just as bothersome as before. What a waste of money this was. | F | 21 | 5 days | 10/26/2007 | 1 | allergies first then as alarm clock | Extreme dry mouth, feeling like my throat is cracking along with terribly irritated nasal membranes, muscle aches, tendonitis, inability to get restful sleep, loss of breath, irritability, constipation, increased heart rate and blood pressure, headaches sometimes severe, the list goes on | This drug was prescribed for allergy/sinus problems but I continued taking it to help me wake up. I would take it right before I fell asleep so that in 3-4 hours when my alarm went off, I was ready to go. I switched to other prescription meds when this one went OTC but had to come back to get the alarm clock effect. After reading all these comments, I'm convinced that this drug has caused all the side effects I listed along with a ruptured disc in my neck. Your disc can rupture if you aren't properly hydrated and that is truly a problem. I still take it every night and have problems getting going without it. I have gone to the extremes to make sure I have one every night for fear of oversleeping and knowing I will feel lethargic if I don't take one. Now, I'm 'pretty much' scared to death of what I have done to myself after all these years. I recently read something about how 'meth' will not let you get the REM sleep that you need, sounds like the same sleep I have deprived mys | F | 42 | 10 years | 10/18/2007 | 1 | Allergies - Year Round | Night Terrors and heart palpitations are what caused me to stop taking this medication. Claritin-D worked wonders for my allergy symptoms but after taking the medicine for at least one year, I started to experience periodic Night Terrors. Maybe it would be best for me to describe it as an anxiety attack while asleep. (I do not suffer from Anxiety Attacks during the day or any other time.) Very different from a regular bad dream or nightmare. I would be asleep and suddenly I would see something coming towards me. I would scream and wake up feeling as if I were having a heart attack. I also had several experiences of me running out of bed. Once at a hotel I was on my way out of my hotel room when I woke up enough to realize what I was doing. | It was an LCSW who asked me to experiment with my allergy medicine to see if it would have an impact on my night terrors. The results were astonishing. No Claritin-D. No Night Terrors. Yes. I even resumed taking the medicine because I could not believe that one pill could make such a difference. Sure enough.....as soon as I resumed the medication, the night terrors returned. Nothing else has worked as well for my allergy symptoms but I'd rather have runny nose, itchy eyes and scratchy throat than to deal with night terrors. | F | 47 | 3 years | 9/24/2007 | 1 | Allergies to pets | I was very sleepy, and every time I haven taken it I've fallen asleep very early in the evening. Loss of sex drive. | Has anyone else experienced the loss of sex drive? | F | 25 | 5 months | 8/14/2007 | 1 | persistent stuffy nose | Complete lack of sleep, elevated heart rate | I thought this would help me to sleep by having my nasal passages clear. It only partially cleared them, and the insomnia far outweighed any benefits. | F | 32 | 2 days | 7/28/2007 | 1 | I experience allergies every spring | tok one claritin about five PM - ate dinner - but the food was tasteless - even tho it was my favourite Japanese dishes - did not connect the dots on my lack of appetite - then I went to bed around 10:30 - as I felt very tired - I usually sleep very well - this time I don't think I slept an hour in all - if that - it is now 6:00 AM and I am wide awake - so I Googled Claritin - and found my answer - this stuff is deadly and should be off the market - I don't know how long this "up and running " feeling will last - but I do know I will live with the itchy eyes and runny nose - Never again - the Claritin just went into the garbage ! | Simple - DONT USE THIS JUNK ! | F | 77 | 1 days | 6/23/2007 | 1 | severe seasonal allergies | I was unable to sleep for 3 days straight, and was very hyperactive during that time. When I was finally able to sleep, I really crashed - slept like the dead for 12 hours. | HMO wants me to switch from allegra to claritin so it won't have to pay for allegra, which for me works without side effects. I took ONE pill of this junk, and was bouncing off the walls for 3 days. I will NOT take this stuff again, and do not recommend it. This is a very dangerous drug. | F | 44 | 1 days | 6/9/2007 | 1 | allergies | about 2-4 hours sleep a day, crazy dreams, can't breath-feel like I'm drowning, frightening mood swings, feeling of being very high. | I took claritin-d 24 hour over two weeks. This is my third day of not taking it and my nose will not stop bleeding. I've missed one day of work and was sent home last night after my third nose bleed. I start gushing blood with no warning and it lasts 5-20 minutes. I am going to a doctor later today . | F | 26 | 3 weeks | 5/23/2007 | 1 | Allergies | Nervous, irritable, severe headaches, depression, loss of appetite, (haven't eaten in 3 days), loss of energy, I am so sleepy, but can't sleep! Very weird dreams, and am angry about the smallest things. It's like I am descibing someome else! This is not me! Thank you for this site! I'M NOT CRAZY!! No more after today!! | Stay away from it!! | F | 39 | 3 weeks | 5/23/2007 | 1 | Seasonal Allergies | Severe anxiety, loss of breath, loss of appetite, shaky limbs, insomnia. | It has done an excellent job clearing me up, taking care of my post-nasal drip, allergies, sinus pressure, and all the other things it promised on the box. However, the side effects are totally not worth it and I feel like I'm on speed. I'm very hyperactive, suffering from severe anxiety. I was only able to get 4 poor hours of sleep last night. I took this pill 20 hours ago and I WILL NEVER TAKE IT AGAIN! You'd think they'd give you more warning about the side effects on the box. After reading your entries, I'm happy to know that I'm not the only one that experienced these crazy symptoms. | F | 21 | 1 days | 5/18/2007 | 1 | allergies | tightness in chest, trouble breathing, excitability | i felt like i was having a heart attack or that my lungs were about to collapse. i didn't know what were causing my symptoms. i decided to check into side effects online. it cleared up my sinuses, but it wasn't worth the side effects. i now know that this is my last day of taking this. i took my last 24 hour pill 13 hours ago and my chest still feels tight. | F | 46 | 3 weeks | 5/17/2007 | 1 | Seasonal Allergies | I gave this medication to my 4-year old son, and we immediately noticed a change in his behavior - hyperactive, very moody, crying very easily. He was taking it for about one week before I made the connection. There were no side effects listed on the bottle. I will never give this medication to my child again! | 7 days | 5/13/2007 | 1 | peeing is not easy. There is definatly wrong with this medicine | Never again. Try echnesea, vitamin c and chinese/japanese tea | M | 1 days | 4/25/2007 | 1 | seasonal allergies | I have also posted under "claritin-d". Product DID help to clear eyes and sinuses but I had to "pay" with: hypertension, severe dehydration, mood-swings, twitchy legs and sore body. My skin became so dehydrated it was peeling every morning! Did I also mention the swelling of throat....?! And bad constipation....and....and...and..After 7 days of usage I felt like I needed 20 additional drugs to cure new symptoms! | I will never, ever take this again. I would rather live through my moderate allergy symptoms.This drug should be taken off the shelves as I believe many people out there can use it to make "speed!!!" | F | 30 | 7 days | 4/24/2007 | 1 | Itchy eyes and congestion | Confusion, disorientation, painful urination, loss of appetite | My son (14 years old, 145 pounds) suffers from seasonal allergies. I thought it would be better to treat his symptoms than to have him constantly rubbing his eyes and dealing with congestion while on the baseball field. Bad plan. He took it at breakfast and had a game that afternoon. He did not play well at all and looked like a zombie. He said he couldn't concentrate and felt really spaced out. I think this drug is way too strong for kids, even if they are the size of an adult. After reading other reviews of this product, I feel like a drug dealer! This is the stuff they use to make meth! I will never buy this product again or let anyone in my family take it. | M | 14 | 1 days | 4/7/2007 |
