Pregnancy

A large amount of data on pregnant women (more than 1000 exposed outcomes) indicate no malformative nor feto/ neonatal toxicity of loratadine.There are no or limited amount of data from the use of loratadine in pregnant women. Animal studies do not indicate direct or indirect harmful effects with respect to reproductive toxicity (see section 5.3). As a precautionary measure, it is preferable to avoid the use of Clarityn during pregnancy.

 

Breastfeeding

Physico-chemical data suggest excretion of loratadine/metabolites in human milkLoratadine is excreted in breast milk. A risk to the newborns/infants cannot be excluded. Therefore, the use of Clarityn is not recommended should not be used duringin breast-feeding women.

 

Fertility

There are no data available on male and female fertility.

 

4.7       Effects on ability to drive and use machines

 

In clinical studies that assessed driving ability, no impairment was observed in patients receiving loratadine. Clarityn has no or negligible influence on the ability to drive and use machines. However, patients should be informed that very rarely some people experience drowsiness, which may affect their ability to drive or use machines.
