Zyrtec Tablet

Zyrtec Tablet contains Cetirizine (10mg). Prescription required.

Allergic rhinitis (sneezing, runny/blocked nose, itchy/watery eyes), Urticaria (hives) and other allergic skin conditions with itching

Cetirizine is a second-generation antihistamine that blocks peripheral H1 histamine receptors. This reduces allergy symptoms like sneezing, itching, watery eyes and skin wheals without significant sedation in most people.

Take as advised by doctor. Common adult dose is 1 tablet (10 mg) once daily; preferably at the same time each day. Can be taken with or without food; swallow with water. May cause drowsiness in some—avoid driving if affected.

Sleepiness/drowsiness, fatigue, dry mouth, headache, dizziness, nausea, sore throat

Use with caution in kidney disease (dose adjustment may be needed). May cause drowsiness in some patients—avoid driving/operating machinery until you know the effect. Consult a doctor before use in children, elderly, or if you have urinary retention/prostate enlargement. Stop and seek medical help if signs of severe allergy occur.

Alcohol (increased drowsiness), CNS depressants/sedatives (additive sedation), theophylline (may reduce cetirizine clearance at high doses), other antihistamines (increased side effects)

Store below 25°C in a dry place, protected from light and moisture. Keep out of reach of children.
