Merging into Loratadine

I suggest that we merge Clarinase into Loratadine. The article on Clarinase is, at the moment, little more than a product leaflet information, so I cannot really justify its existence. I'd rather make Clarinase redirect to Loratadine, as the combination product with pseudoephedrine (Claritin-D or Clarinase) is already mentioned in the foreword anyway.
