RULES

  1. Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling.
  2. Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.
  3. Avoid controversial topics (e.g. politics or societal debates).
  4. Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on !goodoffmychest@lemmy.world
  5. Keep it clean and SFW
  6. No solicitation such as ads, promotional content, spam, surveys etc.

Claritin is Loratadine

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

If anyone here had any reading comprehension, they would see that i specifically mentioned "behind the counter" not the fucking shelf

Oh Ive got enough reading comprehension to take away the key detail that you're a smug asshole who talks down to people with colds and then writes paragraph essay tantrums at anyone who dares talk back clarifying a mistake on your part . how did you even come to the conclusion this person didn't know what psudo was or take anything similar? You know what- doesnt matter. Another day, another condensending ass added to the block list.

You build that echo chamber solid, no worries and apologies for the hurt feelings, but it sounds like you will eventually need to get over it or the world is going to roll you.

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.
