Claritin is Loratadine
Claritin-D is Loratadine with added pseudoephedrine. People can buy all the non-D Claritin they want with no restrictions.

You have my sympathies. It’s kind of wild how we have so many advances in medicine and technology, yet a cold can still knock you on your ass for a week and all anyone can do is some half assed symptom management with Tylenol and Sudafed
If you use 2 packets of salt with the irrigation bottle it will help draw fluid from your swollen sinus tissues.
Claritin is not pseudoephedrine. And while both drugs are helpful, neither will magically make your sinuses 100% clear if you have a bad cold. And actually, IDK if Claritin will help at all with a cold since it is an antihistamine. The stuffy nose from a cold isn’t a histamine response, right?
“Fuck the poor but I do like to smoke weed”
I saw that some bodegas in NYC are selling egg loosies. They referred to them as loosies but they were 3 eggs in a plastic bag.
There’s no need to be so aggressive. And the important thing isn’t a mis communication over Claritin vs Claritin-D. The important point is that Loratadine will do fuck all for the common cold. So unless you are also having allergies, you’re taking a medication that isn’t going to help and overpaying. Just get stand alone pseudoephedrine.
