Frequently asked questions

Q: Reactine Children's vs Claritin Kids?
Both are non-drowsy second-generation antihistamines. Reactine (cetirizine) is slightly more potent; Claritin (loratadine) is the most reliably non-drowsy. If your child is unusually sleepy on cetirizine, switch to loratadine.

Q: How do I dose Reactine for my child?
Ages 2–5: 2.5 mL once daily (or 1.25 mL twice daily). Ages 6–11: 5–10 mL once daily. Always read the package or ask us — we can dose by weight too.

Q: When should I start it for spring allergies?
Start when allergens first appear (typically March in Waterloo) and continue through the season. Antihistamines work much better as a preventative wall than reactively after symptoms appear.

Q: Can my child take it every day for the whole allergy season?
Yes — daily use through the whole spring/summer is well-tolerated. Most kids in Waterloo benefit from continuous use from March to October if outdoor allergies are an issue.

From The Boardwalk Pharmacy team

If your child's allergies aren't responding to a daily oral antihistamine, eye drops (e.g. ketotifen) or a pediatric nasal corticosteroid spray can layer on top safely. Come in for a kid-friendly allergy plan.
