Claritin® is used to treat a range of allergy symptoms, such as runny, itchy nose; sneezing; and itchy, watery eyes. It is an antihistamine, which means it blocks the action of histamine receptors in the body, which prevents the immune system reactions that cause allergy symptoms. Claritin is now available without a prescription, and it comes in several different forms. Side effects may include headaches, drowsiness, and dry mouth.
