Rapid and long-lasting improvement in symptoms
Data from the Robert Koch Institute shows that around 28% of the adult population in Germany is affected by at least one allergy. Around 23% of children and adolescents are affected (and the trend is rising). Allergic rhinitis is an inflammation of the nasal mucosa. However, in addition to the nose, the eyes are often affected. The typical symptoms are sneezing, runny or itchy nose, itchy palate and itchy, red or watery eyes. Urticaria is the formation of wheals, a raised, often itchy change in the skin surrounded by redness. Symptoms are similar to the rash that develops after contact with nettles. Therefore, urticaria is also colloquially called hives. Lorano® _Pro ensures a rapid and long-lasting improvement in symptoms. According to currently valid guidelines, antihistamines of the second generation and their further developments, which also include Lorano ® Pro, are among the drugs of first choice in the symptomatic treatment of allergic rhinitis and urticaria.
Proven active ingredient desloratadine
In the case of allergic reactions, the human immune system responds to substances that are foreign to the body and actually harmless. Allergic rhinitis and urticaria are type I (immediate type) allergic reactions: the symptoms appear just a few seconds to minutes after contact with the allergy-causing substances (allergens). In this case, the binding of the allergen to so-called IgE antibodies leads to the release of messenger substances, especially histamine. The allergic reaction is triggered. Desloratadine blocks histamine receptors and therefore reduces the effects of histamine. The active substance desloratadine is a further development of the active substance loratadine and belongs to the new generation of antihistamines.

Lorano Pro 5 mg desloratadine tablets RISK FACTORS
Genetic predisposition and environmental factors are the two most common risk factors for the development of allergic diseases. The risk of developing an allergy is significantly higher for children whose parents have already been diagnosed with an allergy. Environmental influences such as tobacco smoke and air pollutants also increase the risk of allergic diseases.
FIT THROUGHOUT THE DAY
Allergy sufferers know this: Allergy treatment is often accompanied by drowsiness. Thanks to the active ingredient desloratadine, the antiallergic Lorano ® Pro brings the symptoms under control and, compared to other active ingredients, does not make you drowsy (frequency of drowsiness at placebo level. Frequency of tiredness 1.2%). In addition, desloratadine acts quickly and strongly.
LEISURE ACTIVITIES
A stuffy nose caused by hay fever (also known as pollen allergy) is almost a widespread disease in Germany. For many of those affected, this means a cut in the quality of life. Many leisure activities, especially in nature, can only be practiced to a very limited extent or not at all. Desloratadine works against all hay fever symptoms, including nasal congestion.

What is Desloratadine?
Desloratadine is a modern-generation antihistamine that works fast, powerful, and long-lasting—and doesn't make you drowsy. (Frequency of sleepiness at placebo level. Frequency of tiredness 1.2%)
What is the difference between loratadine and desloratadine?
Compared to loratadine, desloratadine works even faster and stronger - it takes effect after 30-60 minutes (compared to loratadine: 1-3 hours). Desloratadine also works for nasal congestion and is well tolerated.
Are interactions with other medicines known?

How fast does Lorano ® Pro work?
Lorano® _Pro works after 30-60 minutes. This means that the effect occurs faster than with loratadine. The reason: desloratadine is a so-called active substance which, in contrast to the “prodrug” loratadine, no longer has to be metabolized in the liver. So it works directly – and therefore faster.
Does Lorano ® Pro have to be taken with food? The tablet can be taken with or without food. Swallow the tablet with water. The solution can also be taken with or without food. Swallow the entire dose (of the oral solution) and then drink some water.

Does Lorano ® Pro affect driving ability?
When taking the recommended dosage, it is not to be expected that Lorano ®Pro affects your ability to drive or use machines. Although drowsiness does not occur in most individuals, it is recommended that you refrain from engaging in activities that require mental alertness, such as driving or using machines, until your personal response to Lorano ® Pro has been established.
