Question: is xyzal better than loratadine?
Answer: Xyzal (levocetirizine) and Claritin (loratadine) are over-the-counter drugs that can treat allergic rhinitis and chronic urticaria. Xyzal is a third-generation antihistamine while Claritin is a second-generation antihistamine. Therefore, Xyzal is marketed to have less sedative effects.
