I don't know but I doubt it. Some of them still say to only take one or two tablets a day. I haven't taken one in a long time myself. I'm sure the warning lables mention not to drive after taking a pill and things of that nature.

But I just posted what I did because I've seen a few people really suffer with allergies in a terrible way and anyone who does should get the proper help. It's just a brutal thing to have to deal with but there are better treatment options available and a lot of people aren't even aware of that fact. Claritin, Reactine, etc are just temporary solutions to a permanent problem for most people and eventually, your body will build up an immunity to those drugs. Going to see a specialist and getting the shots you need is the only way to get a long-term result.
