Hello young fellow,
Thanks for your follow up. The tablet Dazit containing desloratadine in strength of 5 mg for two times a day is sufficient.
I searched your present place and is showing as Hong Kong so probably you may find it with some other brand names. So if it is desloratadine then 5 mg Strength is sufficient.
I hope these informations will help you. I will be glad to answer any further queries.

Doctor I am in XXXXXXX & I will try for Loratadine first if I do not get it then I will go for Dazit
Brief Answer:
I always prefer Dazit ot Lorfast.
Detailed Answer:
Hello XXXXXXX
Thanks a lot for swift follow up. The location shown by IP address was of Hong kong but as you are in XXXXXXX so it would be quite easy to get the medications.
Loratadine and Desloratadine are just the name of the chemical isomer of the same compound of the drug.
Desloratadine is present in strength of 5mg (with trade name of Dazit or Lorfast) whereas laratadine is present in strength of 10 mg. I always prefer Dazit ot Lorfast.
So I suggest to take any of these tablets from XXXXXXX
I hope these informations will help you. I will be glad to answer any further queries.
