That is a half of a normal adult dose. It can make you drowsy!!
You may want to try the non drowsy medications for allergies, like Reactine or Clartin.
But since you have asthma already you really should speak with your physician as to what you should take! Especially if you are already taking any type of asthma medications.
R.N.
Although this small dosage won’t hurt you, you really shouldn’t be experimenting on yourself. I would suggest that you make an appointment with your physician asap. In the meantime, check out this website it has lots of information on symptoms and treatments:
