Zyrtec is generically known as Cetirizine, an over-the-counter medication used to treat allergies and other related conditions. It belongs to a class drug antihistamine. It works by blocking the action of histamines that are released during an allergic response. When histamine binds to its receptors, it causes inflammation and other symptoms of an allergic reaction.
Zyrtec (Cetirizine) is an antihistamine medication used to relieve allergies and symptoms of hay fever. It is effective in relieving the symptoms of allergic rhinitis, colds, hives, angioedema, anaphylactic reactions, pruritus, and allergic conjunctivitis. It is also used to prevent the recurrence of allergic reactions and reduce itching, sneezing, and other symptoms associated with allergies.
Zyrtec comes in the form of a tablet and should be taken with a drink of water, milk, or squash. It should be swallowed whole without chewing or crushing.
The recommended dosage for Zyrtec (Cetirizine) tablets is one 10 mg tablet once daily for adults and children 6 years and over. Do not take more than one 10 mg tablet in 24 hours. A 5 mg product may be appropriate for some patients.
The recommended dosage for Zyrtec (Cetirizine) for children between 6 to 11 years of age is 5mg, twice a day with 10 to 12 hours between doses. For children between 2 to 5 years of age, the dose is 2.5mg, twice a day. For children between 1 to 2 years of age, your doctor will use their weight or age to work out the right dose. It is important to follow your doctor’s instructions carefully when giving any medication to children.
