Loratadine is an over-the-counter medication commonly used to treat allergy symptoms such as allergic rhinitis and atopic dermatitis. It is an antihistamine that relieves symptoms of allergic reactions, such as sneezing, runny nose, and itching. Luladidine is usually taken once daily and can be taken by mouth or by injection. During use, follow the advice of your doctor or pharmacist to ensure proper dosage and usage. Patients with severe liver and kidney diseases should use it under the guidance of a doctor. Possible side effects include headache, drowsiness, and dry mouth. If you have a serious reaction, such as a rapid heartbeat or difficulty breathing, seek medical attention immediately. Please store medicine away from children and out of direct sunlight. If you have any questions or discomfort, you should consult a professional medical professional in time.
Directions for use: Take this medication on an empty stomach or after a meal, once daily. You can choose to take it in the morning or evening, but make sure you take it at the same time each day. Avoid eating grapefruit or its related products while taking this medication as it may affect its effectiveness. Also, avoid engaging in activities that require a high level of alertness, such as driving a vehicle or operating machinery.
Dosage Guidelines: The recommended daily dose for adults and adolescents 12 years and older is 10 mg. For children 6 to 12 years old, the recommended dose is 5 mg daily. For young children 2 to 6 years old, 2.5 mg daily is recommended. If you feel your dose is too high or too low, ask your doctor for adjustments. For the elderly over 65 years old, it is recommended that the initial dose may need to be adjusted, and please use it under the guidance of a doctor. Remember, do not exceed the recommended daily dose to avoid adverse effects.

If you are pregnant or planning to become pregnant, tell your doctor so that safer alternatives can be chosen.
