Description
Kecet L Tablet is an antiallergic medicine. It is used in allergic conditions such as common cold, allergic rhinitis (running nose), urticaria, insect bite and hives. Kecet L contains levocetirizine
as its active medicine. Allergic symptoms appear due to the production of a chemical in the body, namely histamine. Kecet L Tablet works by blocking the actions of histamine. Do not use it if you are allergic to levocetirizine. Avoid driving and handling any machinery, as this medicine makes you less alert.
