CompositionCetizine Tablet is used to relieve the symptoms of seasonal and year-round allergic rhinitis, such as sneezing, a runny nose, and itchy eyes. It is also used for long-lasting hives and other allergic skin reactions, including the itching of insect bites.
It contains cetirizine, an antihistamine that blocks the natural chemical causing allergy symptoms. Although it causes less drowsiness than some older antihistamines, it may still make some people feel sleepy. Take it as prescribed by your doctor.
Simple measures support treatment. Where possible, identify and avoid your allergy triggers, keep living areas clean and well ventilated, and keep windows closed when pollen counts are high.
Before taking this medicine, tell your doctor about any existing health conditions or other medicines you take. As it can cause drowsiness in some people, take care with driving until you know how it affects you.
