>well. I havent tried many of them.
I once have taken a combination of Loratadin and Pseudoephedrin. Yes that ways stimulating, but I guess because of the Pseudoephedrin.
And Hydroxyzin (Atarax). But this was only mildly sedating. NO stimlation as far as I can remember.
And Diphenhydramine. But its more sedating than stimulating. Also has some positive effect on my conditioin. Sound weired, but I experience it as having a very mild stimulating effect, which gets overlapped with an sedative effect. its both, somehow. but sedation is stronger.
hmmm and many years ago I took one occasionaly (I guess it was also Loratadine)
But cant remember such a reaction. But I was around 14 when i took it, for mild hay fever.Yes, I know some people (especially younger ones? correct?) can have this kind of "paradox" reaction.
bye
