How It Works

How It Works

Loratadine functions by blocking the action of histamine, a substance your body releases during hypersensitivity reactions. When you encounter allergens like pollen, dust, or pet dander, your immune system responds by releasing histamine, which causes symptoms like sneezing, itching, watery eyes, and a runny nose. It selectively binds to peripheral H1 histamine receptors, thereby preventing histamine from attaching to these receptors and triggering allergic symptoms. Because it doesn’t significantly cross into the brain, Loratadine causes drowsiness than older antihistamines.
