Taking Loratadine After Heart Surgery

I had Aortic Valve replacement 4 weeks ago. Now I am starting to have my usual fall allergies and starting to sneeze and cough and it really hurts. I have always taken an allergy pill called loratadine. Is it still safe to take that even if I am experiencing bradycardia now?

It would be best not to take anything, without the approval of your cardiologist. Mine said that Benadryl was safe, but it may depend on what other medications you are taking.

The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, dry mouth, and drowsiness.

What other medications are you currently taking?
