Does Claritin Interact With Trazadone?

I had a basal cell removed by Mohs surgery from my nose today. My nose is heavily bandaged ...I began sneezing and having nasal congestion on the way home. Very painful and soiling my bandage that is supposed to stay dry and in place for a week. I have my granddaughters chewable Claritin in house....but also take trazadone 50mg at bedtime. Can I take both?
