I took Claritin three times. I experienced brief episodes of palpitations (2/3 seconds) 2-3 times each time I took it. Should I stop using it?

It is possible that the palpitations you experienced were due to the presence of pseudoephedrine in the medication. If the box of the product mentions this ingredient, it may explain the short episodes of palpitations you had. If the palpitations are not worsening and the medication is effective for you, it is generally safe to continue using it. If you are concerned, it is always best to consult with a healthcare professional for personalized advice.
