What is the maximum daily dose of loratadine and cetirizine for an adult? I know that 10 mg is given once a day, but how much can you maximum in case of a more severe allergy on a given day?

The maximum recommended daily dose for both medicines is 10 mg. The use of a larger amount threatens the occurrence of side effects, such as drowsiness, headaches or tachycardia, and does not provide a stronger antiallergic effect. Overdose was observed at a dose of cetirizine at least 5 times the recommended daily dose. Symptoms of overdose are confusion, diarrhea, dizziness, fatigue, headaches, malaise, pupil dilation, itching, anxiety especially motor anxiety, sedation, drowsiness, stupor, tachycardia, tremor, urinary retention.
