ACTIVE INGREDIENT: LORATADINE
Atadyn is a non-sedating antihistamine containing Loratadine. It works by blocking the action of histamine, a natural substance in the body that is released during an allergic reaction. Histamine is responsible for the symptoms we associate with allergies, such as itching, swelling, and mucus production. By blocking histamine receptors, Atadyn provides effective relief without making you feel sleepy or drowsy, which is common with older generations of antihistamines.
Atadyn is used for the symptomatic relief of various allergic conditions, including:
Allergic Rhinitis (Hay Fever): Fast relief from sneezing, runny nose, and itchy or burning eyes caused by pollen, dust, or pet dander.
Chronic Urticaria (Hives): Reducing the redness, itching, and number of wheals (hives) associated with allergic skin reactions.
Allergic Conjunctivitis: Relieving redness and itching in the eyes.
Insect Bites: Managing the localized itching and swelling caused by insect stings or bites.
Loratadine (10mg): A long-acting, second-generation antihistamine that provides 24-hour relief with a single daily dose. It does not easily cross the blood-brain barrier, which is why it typically does not cause drowsiness.
Standard Adult Dose: One (1) 10mg tablet once daily.
Children (Aged 2 to 12):
Body weight > 30kg: 10mg (one tablet) once daily.
Body weight < 30kg: 5mg (half a tablet) once daily.
Consistency: Take the tablet at approximately the same time each day for continuous protection.
Administration: Swallow the tablet whole with a glass of water. It can be taken with or without food.
Timing: Since it lasts for 24 hours, one dose in the morning is usually sufficient to cover you for the entire day and night.
Duration: You can take Atadyn as needed for short-term symptoms (like an occasional allergy flare-up) or daily during high-allergy seasons (like the harmattan or pollen season).
Liver Disease: If you have severe liver problems, your body may process Loratadine more slowly. Consult our pharmacist, as you may need to take a dose every other day instead of daily.
Pregnancy and Breastfeeding: While Loratadine is generally considered safe, it is always best to consult a healthcare professional before use if you are pregnant or nursing.
Allergy Testing: If you are scheduled for a skin allergy test, stop taking Atadyn at least 48 hours before the test, as antihistamines can prevent or reduce the reactions that the test is designed to measure.
Alcohol: Although Loratadine does not usually cause drowsiness, you should still be cautious with alcohol, as it can increase the risk of side effects in some individuals.
Indicated For: Adults and children over 2 years of age who need effective, non-drowsy relief from allergy symptoms. It is a perfect choice for students and working professionals who need to stay alert while managing their allergies.
Q: Will Atadyn make me sleepy?
A: For the vast majority of people, Atadyn does not cause drowsiness when taken at the recommended 10mg dose. However, as with all medications, individual reactions can vary.
Q: How quickly does it work?
A: You should begin to feel relief within 1 to 3 hours of taking the tablet, with the maximum effect usually occurring within 8 to 12 hours.
Q: Can I take more than one tablet a day for severe symptoms?
A: No. Do not exceed the recommended dose of one 10mg tablet in a 24-hour period. Taking more will not make it work faster and may increase the risk of side effects like headache or dry mouth.
