Indications 

Claritin Rapid Dissolve is indicated for alleviating allergy symptoms like sneezing, runny nose, itchy nose, and burning, itching, watery, red eyes triggered by seasonal allergens (e.g., pollen from trees, grass, and ragweed) and year-round allergens (e.g., dust mites, animal dander, and molds).
