Finally paid my Cashback – Update on my review 2 weeks ago. After 3 email complaints and exactly 5 weeks I finally received my $10 Cash back today. So to anyone out there still waiting, don't give up keep contacting until they pay you.
The cashback promotion looks like a scam but after several inquiries and complaint I received $10 – I did not receive a payback of $ 10, after purchasing and claiming the $ 10 for 110 tablets. I claimed the cashback on or about 18 November 2024 and rang since twice the 1800 number, on 18/11/24 to check and on 27/11/24 to see where the cashback is. I was told my claim was OK and would take 2-3 weeks, now nearly a month passed and no payment. I… Read more
am unhappy how claratyne handles this cashback promotion, no email reply whatsoever during the process. After complaining, I received the $10! I wished if happened without me complaining...
Cash Back Scam – I love the product but their cash back thing is a scam !! Twice I did and never got anything back. And Stopper buying it because of that scam advertising. You better off sell full price or offer discount than scamming people Show details

No cash back - sham offer? – Had a cash back offer for certain products. Despite two attempts to claim plus an email to the company, I had no reply whatsoever. My conclusion is that this a sham offer and only intended to waste customers’ time. Such disgraceful practices should be investigated, as it seems a trend based on other reviews. Show details

Did not work for me – I purchased the 110 tablets Claratyne box because I have allergies to certain types of food and some environmental factors. Symptoms: runny nose, sneezing, watery eyes, itchy eyes. I took 1 tablet a day: no effect whatsoever. I tried 2 tablets a… Read more
day, no effect neither. I did not experience any adverse reaction or drowsiness, it just didn't give me any relief. I tried another brand and it worked straight away.
Follow-up · I am allergic to dairy food, sugar, dust, humidity, some plants or soil in the garden (not sure which ones) and probably more factors not identified yet. I now take Cetirizine Hydrochloride 10 mg, 1/2 tablet a day. At Chemist Warehouse: Ceteranex, 70 tablets for A$20, has the same active ingredient as Zyrtec but it works out cheaper. It helps me a great deal to manage my allergies.
No cash back received after 20 days!

Did Not Work – Runny nose, itchy eyes,I have been taking the one tablet a day for five days,no difference at all. No it doesn't cause me drowsyness like many others have commented. Definitely won't buy again. Show details
Talk about drowsy this knocked me out – I tried this for the first time 2 weeks ago when my child was in hospital . Lucky I took it in hospital it completely knocked me out I fell asleep so many times thankgod there was nurses there to watch my child . I could not open my eyes it was sedating Very misleading as it’s non drowsy ! It is drowsy they need to rethink taking non drowsy off ! And it didn’t work the full affects nose started leaking a few hours later . Waste of money Show details
Made me sleepy, but does work – Works really well, had no symptoms of hay fever for about 10 hours but made me so so sleepy that no amount of coffee would work. I can't function with it and would rather have hay fever than how I was feeling. Show details
Not Happy With This Product – I brought Claratyne 75 tablets I’m not happy with this product my side affects are dry eyes,very dry mouth I’m finding that I started coughing because my mouth so dry near choking and find hard to breathe properly also I have pains in my stomach and my lower back as well and sometimes I also find it’s hard to open my eyes and they are very dry I will never buy this product ever again.

Only reviewing the box – I had itchy and watery eyes one night. I went to my local supermarket to buy some Claratyne. I wanted the cheapest brand available so I opted for this packet. When I got home with it, I found that one tablet had been removed from the blister pack. The box looked in pristine condition, yet it had been tampered with. Note: There were no seals on the… Read more
box. My reaction was to not have any from the box at all. There was no use taking this back to the supermarket, as getting a refund does not solve the overall problem. The problem is that all medicinal products should have a tamper proof seal on their packaging and yet they do not! Please, can all health and medicinal companies start to place these seals on their products, as part of their practice. Sorry to single out one company, when I'm sure there are many more out there, the same.
I live on this Claratyne during Aug - Oct period – I had very bad hay fever during Aug - Oct period. When GP saw my eye, he immediately referred me to ED. Doctor suggested me to try Claratyne and it worked for me. One tablet in the morning can last until afternoon.
Worked for my hay fever but made me sooo sleepy – This product cleared up my sneezing, runny nose and watery itchy eyes . I took it at 6pm worked in a hour but by 9:30 i was very tired. I woke up this morning and i am like a zombie so incredibly tired and grumpy. It says NON-DROWSY"?
works, but definitely not 24hr – I've been taking this product for a garden rash on my hands/fingers that's so incredibly itchy I can't sleep, hence the 3am review to try take my mind off the itch.. Claratyne does provide a little relief sometimes (I took a tab at 9pm last nite and was able to sleep until now before the itch woke me again) have taken another 20 minutes ago and… Read more
'think' it's reliving it a tadd again. Maybe by around 25% or so anyway. It's never provided me with anywhere near 100% relief but sometimes just gets me by (have used these for other rashes in the past) I think Fexo is regarded as the best

not working at all – I bought a 75 tablets at chemist warehouse coz it is a good deal but does not work at all. Still sneezing a lots , runny n itchy nose and all hayfever systoms. Regret it.
Does nothing for me – Ineffective -- doesn't relieve my symptoms to any extent. Does nothing for my wife either. My wife has reverted to Telfast while I'm using Zyrtec. On top of that Claratyne is expensive although it can be had cheaper from Chemists' Warehouse. Might OK if you only have occasional mild symptoms. I really can't recommend this product. Expensive, ineffective
Really Good! – It was really good! It worked well and combated all runny noses and sore eyes, I was actually able to breath amazingly! Really good I rated it 4 because It was Expensive. It didnt have any side effects, not once did I feel sick or drowsy after eating/consuming these. Really Recommend Fast acting , Easy to chew, Tastes Good and It combats everything ! Really liked it! It was Expensive
Good – Generally a good adult product but product makers need to be more mindful of children who may need purer versions. This is great for me as an adult and controls my hayfever well. It is expensive but all brands are. I've tried some others but they don't work so well. Don't buy the children's version if your child reacts to food additives. For some… Read more
reason it contains sodium benzoate / preservative 211 which sends my son off his tree. I have no idea why this needs to be in a medicine. It is unfair and unnecessary.
I used the Children's Claratyne for my 3 years old daughter and It didn't work at all – My Daughter is 3 years old. She had few mosquito bites on her hands and it was very ichy. So We went to Pharmacy who recomended this medicine. This medicine didn't help at all. It might be co-incident that she then had a fever for next three days. Actually washing with Detol water helped her to cool the ichy. Didn't work for my 3 years old child
Excellent – Claratyne is an excellent anti-hystamine. It brings instant relief and often-times half a tablet is quite sufficient. The tablets are tiny, making them so easy to swallow, particularly for little ones. These are great for spider and other insect bite allergies; in fact they combat almost every type of allergy. Claratyne is one of the few… Read more
anti-hystamines available which many who have heart conditions are actually able to take safely without concerns of negative side effects exacerbating already unpleasant symptoms. (Do check with your doctor first though as each individual case is different for a heart patients.) These tablets aid with breathing too in extreme allergy sufferers. Easy to swallow. Instant relief of havfever symptons. One pack lasts a long time. The price; this product is quite expensive, but no more so than most of its kind, and worth every cent for its effectiveness.
Good – These are probably my favourite hayfever tablets though i go through stages where these seem to work really well and times when they don't. I think sometimes you need to change brands and not stick to one product all the time as you build up a sort of immunity to it. I don't like the price but am willing to pay it if a positive outcome is… Read more
achieved. These are super small tablets so they are very easy to swallow and they only need to be taken once a day. They are quite expensive, buying a 50 pack make them slightly more affordable but this normally still costs a fair bit.
Good – Get the generic drug and it should work just as well. The generic name is Loratadine Tablets (10 mg). They are more affordable especially if you need to take one daily for 5 months like me! I recommend getting small amounts first to check that it works and then bulk buy. You can also save by ordering online in bulk. I didn't know this until… Read more
recently so I haven't tried buying online yet but noticed that prices were about $6 less. It used to work very well for me. It still works, but not as well. Film coated so it's pleasant to take. Most chemists stock it. Effectiveness declined after long-term use. Relatively expensive. It can cause nose bleeds.
Excellent – My boyfriend takes Claratyne to stop his hayfever and it works great. I once had to take Claratyne to stop a rash I had and it worked wonders. The tablet is so small and easy to swallow. Claratyne would be great for anyone with allergies to stop the symptoms. The small tablets would be great for young children with allergies as they are so tiny… Read more
they are easy to swallow. Great hayfever reliever or for any other allergies. The price is resonable because it actually works. Great hayfever, allergy reliever. Very small tablet great for everyone inculding young ones with allergies.

Excellent – It gives me almost instant relief from the terrible itch of psoriasis and lately hay fever, someone in our area has a wood fire at night, not good for people with breathing problems. When I take a Claratyne tablet I am comfortable driving a car as it does not make me tired. effgective and convenient The price although worth it because it works
Good – I love this product. I tried Demazin and that did nothing. Where as this product actually does what it says on the pack!! Only thing I don't like is that it's not cheap. But alot of Hayfever tablets are pricy anyways! The tablets are small (which i find handy as I can sometimes find it difficult to swallow large capsules). I find these tablets… Read more
actually work! Can be expensive, however to try and combat this issue my solution is BUY IN BULK. Not necessarily 10 boxes of the stuff, but buy a pack of 50 instead of 10. It's alot cheaper. Also shop around for them. They range in price at different chemists (I have found) and try and grab them on special if you can!
Bad – This worked great for me the first year, but seemed to not work the following times I tried it. I think you have to use a combination of products like a pill plus eye drops and then you can (sort) of be prepared to tackle hayfever symptoms. This is the first product I tried for my hayfever, and it worked fine the first year. I have terrible… Read more
hayfever symptoms and this (or other products) didn't really help too much. This is really expensive, but I think most of these products are pricey (I don't know why). It is best to buy the larger pack which should be okay because the expiry date should be for a year or two.
OK – Claratyne is great because it doesn't make you drowsy, which is great when suffering from hayfever which makes you feel so awful anyway. It also works for other allergy symptoms such as rashes. I do find it's effectiveness wears off which is frustrating as I have to have a supply of many different tablets to cover me. Small tablet is very easy… Read more
to take, and long lasting effect is great. I find that after a few doses it becomes less effective and I have to switch to another product with another active ingredient for a few doses, and then back again.
Good – Antihistamines help reduce allergic symptons. This works well to clear up allergic reactions that cause rash, redness and swelling. Just recently we went to Bribie Island and were attacked by sandflies causing really itchy red spots, we took Claratyne and it not only stopped the itching but the next day our spots were gone to. I found this product… Read more
to be good in regards to this sort of thing. Claratyne is also available in packs of 10 and 30 tablets as well as syrups so it suits the whole family. small easy to swallow tablets. does not necessarily work for all peoples symptons.
Good – works very well to control allergies however they are very expensive little tablets, they are easy and small to swallow though work really quickly when im having a reaction or im extremely itchy, dont affect me in any other way like other medications. tablets extremely small and easy to swallow Expensive, only small amount in box
OK – As a sufferer of allergies for most of my life, I find Claratyne is great for providing effective relief from hayfever, itchy skin and other allergy symptoms. They work quickly and you only need to take one table per day. Claratyne is more expensive than other allergy relief medication though, so it is worth shopping around to see if there are… Read more
other suitable medications available at a cheaper price. Overall, it is a very effective product at relieving allergy symptoms and provides all day relief with one tablet. Effective treatment against allergy symptoms, Small tablet size is easy to swallow and lasts for 24 hours A bit pricey compared to competitors products
OK – These are effective for allergies and hayfever sufferers however there are only a small amount of tablets in each box and are quite expensive for what you get. I find there are much more cost effective products on the market that do the job just as well. tablet size box size, cost
Excellent – I would highly recommend Claratyne, it is very effective. I use when I get hayfever, and I once used it when I had hives. The hives disappeared straight away! But when I stopped using it my skin got itchy and I got hives again, which proves that it actually works! It's a bit expensive but if you need it, you need it. The really small tablet size.… Read more
I find it hard to swallow large tablets, and this makes it really easy. It works very well as an antihistamine. It's really expensive, other brands are cheaper and they do the job just as well.
Good – i agree that claratyne is expensive for the amount of tablets you get but as i only get hayfever every so often, the cost doesn't bother me as much as it would someone needing it all the time. i find they are effective in treating hayfever which is such a relief when it starts to work, there is nothing more miserable than feeling crummy on a… Read more
beautiful day. allows you to get out and about and to not miss a day of work. so i would recommend for that reason. effective in treating hay fever more expensive than other brands
Good – I usually hardly get bogged down with hayfever, but there was this once when the constant sneezing, itchy eyes and itchy nose was just too much for me while I was at work. There were some Claratyne tablets available at my workplace, and after taking a tablet I was asked to rest. It was really effective; I stopped sneezing within 30 minutes and my… Read more
eyes stopped watering. It didn't make me drowsy as well, which allowed me to resume work shortly after. I have bought other antihistamine tablets before, but not this one; hence, I am not really sure of its price but generally antihistamines are pretty expensive. I have heard of other generics for Claratyne such as AllerEze which are cheaper. This product seems to be good for other allergic conditions too, for instance hives or certain types of rashes. Works well with allergic conditions such as hayfever, rashes and hives; non-drowsy Can be quite expensive, but generic options are available
Excellent – Once daily dosing is very convinent. It's non-drowsy. Effective in reducing allergy and hayfever symptoms. Drug name is "Loratidine" and there are generics out there that are EXACTLY THE SAME safety and effectiveness and they're CHEAPER. Dries your nose up, stops sneezing, itchy eyes (hayfever-like symptoms). Once daily dosing Doesn't help too a congested (blocked) nose. Can't be used in pregnancy.
Terrible – Does not work , i haveused it and my husband even my 9 year old son has used the child version it does not work
