What is Clarityne and what is it used for?

It is a medicine formulated with loratadine, an active substance belonging to the group of so-called antihistamines, so it helps to reduce your allergy symptoms by blocking the effects of a substance called "histamine", which is produced in the body when you are allergic to something.
