Hi! I have been using Claratin D for years and am now past menopause. I stopped taking it a couple of weeks ago because it was drying up all of my orafices and I was finding it more difficult to lose weight. I am allergic to sulfamides, but no doctor I have ever used ever pointed out that this could be a problem. I am also having trouble with my retina.

Can Claratin D Cause Weight Gain?
Hello, Weight gain is a known side effect of Loratadine. Dryness is also a common side effect of this medication. If you have these side effects I recommend to consult your doctor for an alternative dose or treatment. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
