I'm dealing with chronic liver disease, allergic rhinitis, bronchitis, and asthma, and I'm really worried about finding a safe antihistamine for my condition. Do you think options like Levocetirizine, Desloratadine, or Bilastine would be safe for me?

For someone with chronic liver disease, it's important to choose an antihistamine that has minimal impact on the liver. Among the options, Desloratadine is generally considered safer as it has fewer liver-related side effects compared to others. However, it's best to consult your doctor before starting any medication to ensure it's appropriate for your condition.
