Buying from a pharmacy outside the U.S.? Read Is it safe to order Clarinex from Canada?
90-day cost = 90 tablets at the usual dose of 1 a day, bought as one order of whole packs with one shipping fee. 90-day cost is worked out from each pharmacy's real order size so different pack sizes compare fairly. Orders are kept within a 3-month supply (92 days); a pack that is larger than that is marked and not used for the lowest price at the top of this page. Prices checked Nov 11, 2026 on each pharmacy's website, in U.S. dollars. Savings compare with the U.S. list price. The lowest price at the top of this page uses only packs whose maker the pharmacy names, or whose product country and ships-from country it states. Price is the pharmacy's own price for one pack, as shown on its website (converted to U.S. dollars when it prices in Canadian dollars). Delivery is the pharmacy's own estimate for the shipping option shown, not a promise; some pharmacies count from when they receive your prescription or ship the order. Total = the packs needed + shipping. When those packs don't add up to exactly 90 days, the row shows what that order costs and, under it, what it works out to for 90 days; we sort by the 90-day amount so pack sizes compare fairly. Prices change often; confirm at checkout. U.S. rows: the cash price a U.S. pharmacy published on its own website on the date shown, for whole fills, plus its standard shipping; no insurance or discount cards. “Fee not published” means the pharmacy doesn’t show its shipping fee before checkout, so that row’s total is the medicine price only.

Clarinex coupons and savings programs
We show the programs that usually fit, cheapest first where we know the price. Private insurance means a plan through work or one you buy yourself. Programs set their own rules, so check the terms before you count on one. We don't save this choice.
eDrugSearch does not offer its own Clarinex coupons. These programs can help with the cost of brand Clarinex or generic desloratadine:
- Medicare Extra Help: if you have Medicare and limited income, Extra Help lowers what you pay for prescriptions. (Social Security)
- Medicare Prescription Payment Plan: a free Medicare option that spreads your drug costs into monthly payments across the year. It doesn't lower the total, but it can make costs easier to manage. (Medicare.gov)

Yes. The FDA has approved generic desloratadine 5 mg tablets from several companies, including Lupin, Dr. Reddy's, Natco, Bionpharma and Virtus, all rated equivalent to Clarinex. FDA approvals of these generics date back to 2010, and Lupin's has been listed as on the market since February 25, 2013.

| 5 mg | Yes | Lupin, Dr. Reddy's, Natco, Bionpharma, Virtus and others | — |
Outside the U.S.: Online pharmacies abroad may also sell generic desloratadine made for other markets. Those packs are not FDA-approved, and the price table labels them that way.

What is Clarinex used for?
Clarinex (desloratadine) is an antihistamine. It blocks histamine, a substance the body releases during an allergic reaction. According to its FDA label (DailyMed), it is used for:
- Seasonal allergies (hay fever): relief of nose and other symptoms in people 2 years and older.
- Year-round allergies: relief of nose and other symptoms in people 6 months and older.
- Chronic hives with no known cause (chronic idiopathic urticaria): relief of itching and fewer, smaller hives in people 6 months and older.
Clarinex comes as 5 mg tablets. The label's dose for adults and children 12 and older is one tablet once a day, with or without food. Younger children's doses use liquid or melting-tablet forms of desloratadine; the label says Clarinex Oral Solution and Clarinex RediTabs are no longer marketed. In the U.S., Clarinex needs a prescription. Your prescriber decides which medicine is right for you.
Is it safe to order Clarinex from Canada?
Many Americans do, but U.S. law and customs rules apply, and for Clarinex, compare the U.S. price of FDA-approved generic desloratadine before you order. Federal law generally doesn't allow individuals to import prescription drugs, though under its personal importation policy the FDA has long used enforcement discretion for some personal-use shipments, generally no more than a three-month supply (FDA). Congress has said enforcement against individuals should focus on imports that pose a significant threat to public health (Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act section 804(j)(1), 21 U.S.C. 384(j)(1)). You need a prescription from your doctor. New U.S. Customs rules for mailed orders start January 20, 2027. In Canada, desloratadine 5 mg tablets are sold under the name Aerius by Bayer (Health Canada), not under the Clarinex name.

Frequently asked questions
How much is Clarinex without insurance?
The U.S. list price of brand Clarinex 5 mg is $925.33 for 100 tablets, or about $277.60 for 30 days, in the Texas 2026 drug price filing. Licensed pharmacies abroad charged from $67.95 for 90 days of brand Clarinex 5 mg in our latest check (Nov 11, 2026). FDA-approved generic desloratadine is also sold in the U.S.
Is there a generic Clarinex?
Yes. The FDA has approved generic desloratadine 5 mg tablets from several companies, rated equivalent to Clarinex. They've been sold in the U.S. for more than a decade. The generic name is desloratadine. Ask your pharmacist whether a generic can fill your prescription.
How much does generic desloratadine cost?
In the Texas 2026 drug price filing, Bionpharma's generic desloratadine 5 mg lists at $33.44 for 100 tablets. That's a list price (the maker's wholesale price before discounts), so what a pharmacy charges can differ. Ask your pharmacist for the cash price.
Is there a Clarinex coupon or savings card?
eDrugSearch doesn't offer coupons of its own. FDA-approved generic desloratadine is sold in the U.S.; ask your pharmacist for its cash price. If you have Medicare and limited income, Extra Help can lower what you pay for prescriptions.
How much does Clarinex cost with Medicare?
It depends on your Part D plan's drug list. In 2026, Part D deductibles are capped at $615 and out-of-pocket costs for covered drugs at $2,100 a year. Ask your plan whether it covers brand Clarinex or generic desloratadine.
Is Aerius the same as Clarinex?
Aerius is the name used in Canada and some other countries for desloratadine 5 mg tablets. In Canada it is sold by Bayer. Packs made for other countries are not FDA-approved. The price table shows each pack's name and country.
Is Clarinex the same as Claritin?
No. Claritin contains loratadine and Clarinex contains desloratadine. The Clarinex label describes desloratadine as a major metabolite of loratadine, which means the body makes it when it breaks loratadine down. They are separate medicines, and your prescriber decides which medicine is right for you.
Is Clarinex-D the same as Clarinex?
No. Clarinex-D 12 Hour combines desloratadine with pseudoephedrine, a decongestant, in an extended-release tablet. It is a separate product with its own FDA approval, and it isn't priced on this page.
