Claritin is not pseudoephedrine. And while both drugs are helpful, neither will magically make your sinuses 100% clear if you have a bad cold. And actually, IDK if Claritin will help at all with a cold since it is an antihistamine. The stuffy nose from a cold isn’t a histamine response, right?
You need to edit/delete your comment, because it’s spreading misinformation and it sounds like you don’t know what you’re talking about in the slightest.
There’s no need to be so aggressive. And the important thing isn’t a mis communication over Claritin vs Claritin-D. The important point is that Loratadine will do fuck all for the common cold. So unless you are also having allergies, you’re taking a medication that isn’t going to help and overpaying. Just get stand alone pseudoephedrine.
2 large mucinexs. It was also for 2 people, so if I can’t get any this time, I’ll have to have my SO get them. It would have been nice though having some left from last time.
Mucinex has pseudo ephedrine? I thought it was only guaifenesin in there, which is actually and literally not even close to the same thing as pseudo ephedrine, like at all…
Mucinex-D is a combined product that contains both guaifenesin and pseudoephedrine. It also has the side effect of making you so thirsty that you think you might have rabbies.
No problem! The symtoms were light with it but beware of the thirst. They also have a max version that’s more hardcore. I couldn’t imagine what it’d do lol
How many pills did you attempt to buy? Because one of the Claritin boxes has enough doses to last two weeks.

Claritin is Loratadine
Claritin-D is Loratadine with added pseudoephedrine. People can buy all the non-D Claritin they want with no restrictions.

If anyone here had any reading comprehension, they would see that i specifically mentioned “behind the counter” not the fucking shelf

Fuck, nice. I should buy those next time instead of Claritin-D
Appreciate your clarification!
