Ome day my brother said he quit taking it because it made it feel as if things were crawling on his legs. I had experienced the same sensation while working on the laptop with my feet propped up on an ottoman. I attributed the feeling to static electricity making the hairs on my legs stand up. Well, it wasn't, it was the Clartin. I stopped taking it, and the feeling went away.

After stopping Clartin, when I had bad allergies, I began taking Benadryl only at night when I went to bed. It helped me sleep, and I had fewer symptoms during the day. Now I rarely need it.

Good luck.
