Here is a collection of user reviews for the medication Clarinex-D 24hr sorted by most helpful. ![]()
The following Patient Discussions have not been medically reviewed. See additional information.
I took Claritin D due to severe seasonal allergies. After taking it for the first day I felt nauseous, irritable and had all day mood swings including minor depression pangs. I am never one to suffer from insomnia but the night of the first morning i took it I also couldnt sleep from 3 am till 5 am. I happened to discuss this with a colleague who had also started recently taking it and he also mentioned severe repeated insomnia. The one day I did not take the medicine - as I forgot - my allergies returned but I had not mood swings. Then I got back to taking it and all the symptoms listed about returned!! After discussing this with my colleague I decided to google the side effects of Claritin d and discovered that there are thousands of people out there experiencing similar side effects. I decided to ttash my newly refreshed stock of the 154 pack tablets immediately - even though they cost close to $18 - as I figured the side effetcs were just not worth the allergy relief!

This medicine worked great but I experienced the side effects of nausea, and lost my want to eat. So I am switching but if the side effects were not there it would be a great medicine. Published: April 04, 2008 ::
I love this allergy medication! I have been on this medication since 2005 for my severe allergies. I found it the best to combat my severe allergies without making me tired or shakey. I take it in the morning and I am set for the day. Works great and I take it year round. Published: February 20, 2009 ::
i Take D 24 once a day and it has relieved my major rash itches i had from being very allergic to my old pet. Im 18 and this has also wiped out my acne problem. Published: February 10, 2009 ::
this medicine works great, I have been taken it for sinus problems. It clears congestion almost immediatly! But the first time I took it was before bed, and I didn't sleep a wink. It cause me to have severe dry mouth and rapid heart beat. My advice is to take it first thing in the morning, or you will have insomnia! Published: December 23, 2008 ::
I found that it worked quite well for me, but trying to quit taking it has been quite difficult. I feel very odd and vague after not taking this for a few days. I want to see how I do without it having completed three years of allergy injections. Published: December 03, 2008 ::
I have taken 2 pills (one Saturday night and one Sunday night) and I have not been able to sleep at night since! Help! What can I do to get my regular night sleep back? I'm exhausted! Published: September 03, 2008 ::

I used calrinex for chronic hives. It is the only medication that gave me any relief. My insurance won't pay for it. I tried other meds. None work. Published: June 18, 2008 ::
