Are there interactions between Metformin and Loratadine (claritin)?

Question

I don't have diabetes, but have PCOS. I usually take 1 generic Claritin called Loratadine, daily. I'm now also taking Metformin daily. I haven't taken my loratadine for about a week, but want to start back up...I woke up and couldn't breathe through my nose, but couldn't take a sudafed. Metformin interacts with pseudoephedrine. I'll be asking a pharmacist when I get a chance, but thought I'd ask on here first to see if anyone knew off hand.

Answer 1

Loratadine is fine with Metformin.  Plain Loratadine is pretty much fine with everything, you just wouldn't want to double up with another allergy medicine.
