Claritin owner?

Who owns Claritin (loratadine) today?

Claritin, the allergy medicine whose active ingredient is loratadine, is marketed in many countries by Bayer.

Is Claritin the same product as loratadine generics?

Yes. Claritin is a brand name for loratadine. Generic and store-brand products that contain loratadine are typically sold under different brand names, even though the active ingredient is the same.

Why does the “owner” of Claritin seem to change by country?

Brand rights and who markets the product can vary by country and can change due to licensing and local distribution agreements. So the “owner” a shopper sees on packaging may differ depending on where they are.
