When an allergic reaction occurs, cells in the body release histamine, this causes histamine to bind to certain receptors in the body, which then leads to allergy symptoms. By taking loratadine, histamine is prevented from binding to its receptors, which helps to provide relief from hay fever symptoms and allergies.
