What antihistamine can you take with sertraline?

You should avoid benadryl because of cumulative possible side effects (anticholinergic effects). Use another antihistaminic (second generation) like Reactine, Claritin, Aerius, etc.. instead of benadryl. These effects might be tolerable if you're young and taking a low dose of Zoloft... but use something else if it's possible..

Can another allergy pill be taken if Claritin 24 hour is not working?

If you're taking Claritin, not Claritin-D, you can take basic allergy medications like Benadryl. The side effects include drowsyness, etc. If you're looking for an alternative, Zyrtec has come out on the market, and it has 12- and 24-hour varieties. I've heard that taking allergy pills (Claritin, Zyrtec, etc...) are more effective when taken twice daily in people that metabolize the medication more quickly. It's something to try out. Get the Claritin 12-Hour and try that for awhile to see if it works better for you. Otherwise, consider seeing your physician about Allegra, an allergy medication that is still available via prescription or talk to him about using an intranasal administered antihistamine together with your current Claritin.
