DRUG INTERACTIONS:
No specific interactions studies have been conducted with loratadine, pseudoephedrine & paracetamol tablets. However, loratadine ( 10 mg once daily ) has been safely co-administered with therapeutic doses of erythromycm, cimetidine, ketoconazole in controlled clinical pharmacology studies.

Loratadine, pseudoephedrine & paracetamol tablets (pseudoephedrine component) are contraindicated in patients taking monoamine oxidase (MAO) inhibitors, and for 2 weeks after stopping use of an MOA inhibitor. The antihypertensive effects of beta—adrenergic blocking agents, methyldopa, mecamylamine, reserpine and veratum alkaloids may be reduced by sympathomimetics. Increased ectopic pacemaker activity can occur when pseudoephedrine is used concomitantly with digitalis.

Patients receiving CNS depressants such as anaesthetics, hypnotics, sedatives, tranquilizers and alcohol concomitantly with Loratadine, paracetamol & pseudoephethine tablets may exhibit an additive CNS depression.

Barbiturates and prolonged alcohol ingestion may increase the metabolism of paracetamol to metabolites toxic to the liver .
