Your local pharmacist should be able to answer your question.
Check the information sheet that comes with each of these drugs. Interactions are always included on these sheets.
I take Edoxaban, and occasionally Claritin, and don’t recall any mention of interaction between them, but I don’t have the information sheets any more to double-check. You might find copies of the information if you search the drug names and look on the NICE website.
I'm not on the same tablets b ut my chemist told me there are only certain antihistamines I shoudl take. Do check with your pharmacy
I take both daily with no issues.
You are able to access an 'Intermediate gynaecologist clinic' for issues with menopause-itching is very common then, and if it's outside, a cream can help, but if it's inside then maybe a topical oestrogen like Vagirux tablet used twice a week will help a lot! Good luck.
