Lately, my sinuses have been killing me. So on Friday I started taking Claritin, 10mg. At first it didn't seem to do anything for my sinuses, and I noticed my stomach felt weird, I felt cold, I had a strange headache, and I felt like I was in a daze. It is supposed to be non-sedating / non-drowsy, but apparently this stuff is only LESS drowsy than the other versions. I was OK with this since after Friday it seemed to be working for my sinuses after all.
I took some today at 11 a.m. and within two hours it was like I lost muscle control. I either had no grip, or gripped something too hard. I was either walking fast, or walking slow. My short term memory was gutted, I had no concentration, my skin felt like it was moving, I looked pale, I felt cold, my stomach was tight, I couldn't feel my self urinating.
Am I too sensitive toward Claritin (Loratidine)? Are these common side-effects? Could my body not take even 10mg, causing it to pseudo-overdose?
I am never taking this crap again. I'm fine now, but I am afraid I'm going to wake up convulsing in the middle of the night or something. Has anyone ever felt like this? Did I have a stroke from Claritin at 24 years old? Was my anxiety making the side-effect anxiety exponentially worse?
