Description

Cetirizine is a commonly used medicine to help relieve allergy symptoms such as sneezing, a runny nose, watery eyes, and itching in the eyes or nose. It also works well for skin allergies like hives and general itching. This medicine belongs to a group called antihistamines, which block a substance called histamine that the body produces during allergic reactions.

You may come across cetirizine in syrup form, which can be easier for children or individuals who have difficulty swallowing tablets. It's essential to use the syrup carefully with children, and always consult a doctor before giving it to them. The doctor will recommend the right dose based on the child’s age and weight.

Cetirizine syrup is also available under various brand names, including Cetzine syrup, Alerid syrup, Zyrtec syrup and Cetcip syrup. These all work in a similar way because they contain the same active ingredient. Your doctor may suggest one of these depending on availability or what suits you best.

If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, it’s best to speak with your doctor before taking cetirizine syrup. While it is generally considered safe, your doctor can help weigh the benefits and risks to make sure it’s the right choice for you and your baby.

To achieve the best results, take cetirizine exactly as directed by your doctor or as indicated on the label. Try to take it at the same time each day, and avoid taking more than the advised amount. If you notice any unusual side effects or if symptoms don’t improve, talk to your doctor promptly.
