Zyrtec Syrup is used to relieve allergy symptoms in children, such as sneezing, a runny or blocked nose, and itchy, watery eyes. It is a single-ingredient medicine containing cetirizine, which belongs to a class of medicines called antihistamines (anti-allergic medicines).
This medicine is also used to relieve itching and rash caused by chronic urticaria (long-lasting hives). It helps with both seasonal allergies, such as hay fever, and year-round allergies to dust or pet dander. Give the syrup by mouth, with or without food, using the measuring device provided, in the dose prescribed by the doctor.
Keeping your child's room free of dust and pet hair, washing bedding and soft toys regularly, and keeping windows closed on high-pollen days can help reduce allergy symptoms.
Before giving this medicine, tell the doctor if your child has kidney problems, epilepsy, or difficulty passing urine, and about other medicines your child takes. It is not usually recommended for children under 2 years of age unless the doctor advises. It may cause drowsiness in some children. Contact the doctor if your child's symptoms do not improve or you notice unusual behaviour. Do not stop giving this medicine unless the doctor advises you to do so.
