Are Symptoms Such As Post-nasal Drip Related To Taking Clarinase For Rhinitis?

Hi, 1) How many days maximum can I be taking Clarinase? 2) Clarinase suitable to treat Rhinitis? 3) If symptoms (postnasal drip/blocked & runny nose) has persisted for more than 6 days, does that mean it is an allergic type of Rhinitis? And how long does a course of allergic Rhinitis usually run for? Thanks.
