My wife has some allergy problems. But it seems it is not the only problem she has. Also she has hearing problems. I have concluded that after her recent visit to the doctor. He has recommended her a medicine and she did not hear is it Clarinex or Claritin. Tell me please what is the difference between Clarinex and Claritin?

You should not be so harsh on her. She didnt hear well, so what? There is no big difference between those two medications anyway. Claritin major component is loratadine and Clarinex major component is desloratadine which is the active form of loratadine. It means that those two medications are basically the same and there is possibility that doctor told her that she can use either one of them. It seems that Clarinex is a little stronger.
