What Is Alaspan?
Alaspan contains loratadine, one of the most-used second-generation antihistamines worldwide. It is on the WHO List of Essential Medicines. The active metabolite is desloratadine (sold separately as Aerius). Loratadine has minimal CNS penetration, giving negligible sedation in most users.
How Does Loratadine Work?
Loratadine selectively blocks peripheral H1 histamine receptors with high specificity. By preventing histamine binding, it relieves itching, sneezing, runny nose, watery eyes, and skin wheals. It does not cross the blood-brain barrier in significant amounts at therapeutic doses, hence the lack of sedation that characterises first-generation antihistamines (chlorpheniramine, diphenhydramine).

Avertismente și precauții

Întrebări frecvente
Is Alaspan the same as Claritin?
Yes — both contain loratadine 10 mg. Claritin (Bayer / formerly Schering-Plough) is the international brand; Alaspan is an Indian-market generic.
Will Alaspan make me drowsy?
Less than 8% of users report drowsiness — most people can drive and work normally on it. If drowsy, take it at night.
How long does Alaspan take to work?
Onset within 1 hour; full effect within 3 hours; duration 24 hours.
Can children take Alaspan?
Yes from age 2 in age-appropriate strength (5 mg under 30 kg; 10 mg above 30 kg).
Is Alaspan safe in pregnancy?
Yes — loratadine has reassuring observational pregnancy data. It is among the preferred antihistamines in pregnancy.
How does Alaspan compare to cetirizine or fexofenadine?
All three are non-sedating second-generation H1 antihistamines. Cetirizine has slightly more potential drowsiness than loratadine. Fexofenadine has the lowest drowsiness rate. All are equally effective for most allergy symptoms.
Can Alaspan replace my inhaler for asthma?
No — antihistamines treat the rhinitis component but do not control asthma bronchospasm. Continue your inhalers.
How long can I take Alaspan?
Long-term daily use is acceptable for chronic urticaria and perennial rhinitis. No tolerance develops with chronic use.
Can I take Alaspan with my other allergy medications?
Yes — loratadine combines well with intranasal steroids (Flomist, Furamist), montelukast (Montair), and short antihistamine eye drops. Discuss the regimen with your prescriber.
