Did some research regarding Zyrtec. I live in Canada and i didn't understand why we did not have access to a non-drowsey antihistamine here. Well, it appears we do. From what I have seen, so far, it looks like our equivalent is Reactin! Just wanted to know if someone could double check for me? I don't want to put this information out there if its not accurate. Thanks!

p.s. I just checked wikipedia and it looks like this information is correct! Thats good to know.

Here's the link:

Atomic, do you mind confirming for us fellow Canadian gals?

Much Love!
