For Allergic Rhinitis "It was effective for my allergies, however, it caused many side effects that are listed nowhere! Depression, anxiety, confusion, and sleepiness that was so pronounced I had to pull over while driving. This was the Non-drowsy formula. There are 11 other people who had similar reactions in the support in drugs.com group, under the drug name. I'll deal with my allergies rather than end up in the psych ward."

For Allergic Rhinitis "Read some of the reviews, says it causes confusion, anxiety, depression. I took it for 2 days. 1st day I didn’t feel anything except my ears started ringing really bad. 2nd day I took it, it caused the worst confusion of my life. Going on the day after and I still feel like rubbish. Don’t take this drug."

For Allergic Rhinitis "The first day it was effective, but I started to feel tired and sad. I also suffered from lack of sleep and felt thirsty all the time, even though I drank lots of water. I was not able to do number 2 :-) for 3 days, and I had stomach aches. I stopped taking this drug immediately."

For Allergic Rhinitis "It did help with symptoms, but it caused depression for me. Took it for three days, then realized that I had depression. Google Claritin and depression, and the second listing that comes up is a discussion on this website about Claritin from users saying it caused depression for them."
