F.A.Q

What is D-clar?

D-clar is used to treat symptoms such as watery eyes, sneezing, hives and a runny or blocked nose when in contact with substances such as insect bites, dust mites, pet fur or pollen. The active ingredient desloratadine is considered a non-drowsy antihistamine type of medication that reduces the effect of the natural chemical histamine in the body. It is used to treat perennial allergic rhinitis as well as seasonal allergic reactions

How is D-clar used?

D-clar should be taken orally once per day with or without food unless directed otherwise by a doctor, Place D-clar tablet on the tongue and allow for disintegration

How does D-clar work?

The active substance (desloratadine) is an antihistamine. It works by blocking the receptors to which histamine, a substance in the body that causes allergic symptoms, normally attaches itself. When the receptors are blocked, histamine cannot have its effect, and this leads to a decrease in the symptoms of allergy
