I have pretty severe allergies. Plus I am sensitive to medications. So I am always looking for different options. I have found that Clemastine (Tavist) is just as effective as Loratadine (Claratin) but with more drying power (ability to help with congestion). It seems to start working in as little as 20 min and lasts the whole 12 or so hours. I take 1/2 pill, and the pills are scored for easy snapping. Can't take Zyrtec AT ALL. It leaves me completely zonked- even at 1/3 normal dose.
Since just about everything has side effects for me, it is better that this is a 12 hour medication, instead of 24 hours like most other modern antihistamines. It gives me more control- for example, I can take it just at night and be off it during the day.
This generic Clemastine formulation seems to be just as effective as the Walgreen's "Walhist", but at a MUCH lower price. Just because it is a really old drug, and nobody carries it anymore, doesn't mean it isn't a good one. It just doesn't have any marketing behind it anymore.
I am very happy with this item.

I use this drug to relieve itching for my dog and it was originally prescribed by my veterinarian. Your product seems to work just as well as the original.

This antihistamine works better on me than zyrtec, sudafed, claritin, or anything else I can get locally.

Give me relief of my allergy symptoms
the same as Tavist over the counter tablets.
You can bypass the greedy Pharmaceutical
companies by buying this generic. They want
you to spend more on drugs that are not off
their patent. Save alot using this!!
Can't find Tavist anywhere because of greedy
corporate Big Medical business.

but at a MUCH better price. The shipping took the full time mentioned, but this was during the Christmas holidays, so I would expect that. My mother ordered the same item a few days later and got it faster.
All in all, a good experience and help at a great price!
