Does anyone experience panic attacks or extreme anxiety on Loratadine?
I normally have some level of anxiety but I've been having really extreme anxiety and panic attacks over the past few day. The only thing I've taken that I don't usually take is loratadine for allergies. I've seen online that it's meant to have the reverse effect on anxiety but I've also seen maybe one of two other people asking the same thing with no definite answers.
Anybody else get this?
I also haven't taken any today and I haven't had any panic attacks. My anxiety is at base level too.

Completely anecdotal, but I had similar reactions when taking both Zyrtec and singulair for asthma/allergies, and switching out the ceririzine for loratidine or diphenhydramine(benedryl) got rid of the symptoms. Back when I started on singulair, I had no idea that certain allergy medicines could have an effect on mental health, but nowadays there's a disclaimer packet every time I pick up a prescription of singulair. I had to do some experimenting with different combinations of allergy medications to find what worked best for me without side effects, so I'd recommend having a conversation with your doctor about what would be best for you to try
