However, the infrequent maternal use of loratadine and the prevalence of hypospadias have a major impact on sample size requirements for providing the definitive assurances of the safety of loratadine to the unborn child [29].

methods outlined in previous reports [18]. The recombinant clones were identified by using a PCR. The pAdeasy-1 contains the human adenovirus type 5 genome with E1 and E3 deletions.
