HOW DESLORATADINE ACTAVIS WORKS
Desloratadine Actavis is an antiallergy medicine that does not make
you drowsy. It helps control your
allergic reaction and its symptoms.
WHEN DESLORATADINE ACTAVIS SHOULD BE USED
Desloratadine Actavis relieves symptoms associated with allergic

sneezing, runny or itchy nose, itchy
palate, and itchy, red or watery eyes.
