Clarinex-D 12 HOUR Oral Uses
Desloratadine is an antihistamine that provides relief of seasonal allergy symptoms such as watery/itchy eyes, runny nose, and sneezing. Pseudoephedrine is a decongestant that relieves a stuffy nose, helps drain the sinuses, and improves breathing.
This medication is not recommended for use in children younger than 12 years because the large amount of pseudoephedrine may cause serious side effects.
