What is Clarinex?
Clarinex is a brand-name prescription antihistamine that relieves sneezing, itching, hives, watery eyes, and runny nose due to allergies. These symptoms are caused by histamines naturally produced by the body as a response to foreign substances. The active ingredient in Clarinex, desloratadine, blocks these histamines.
Clarinex comes in three formats: tablets, syrup, and RediTabs, which dissolve in the mouth.
Do not confuse Clarinex with Claritin, an over-the-counter antihistamine with a similar name but with a different active ingredient. A Clarinex prescription should not be substituted with Claritin.
