<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> Does anyone have any information on Claritin, the antihistamine, as to whether it is safe for Celiacs to take? Yesterday my dermatologist prescribed Claritin to control the severe itching of a very heavy outbreak of excema. I woke in the middle of the night choking, and by morning had lost my voice, which is typical of a food reaction, particularly wheat, for me. Is there a relationship between Claritin and wheat? I seem to remember a note on this subject a while back, but don't recall the answer. If Claritin is not safe, are there any antihistamines which are? Any help would be appreciated. Ruth
