About Levocetirizine Liquid 2.5mg/5ml

Levocetirizine is an antihistamine used to relieve allergy symptoms such as sneezing, runny nose, itchy eyes, and itching or swelling caused by hives. It is often used for conditions like allergic rhinitis (hay fever) and chronic urticaria (hives).

The liquid form of Levocetirizine (2.5mg/5ml) is commonly prescribed for children or individuals who may have difficulty swallowing tablets or tablets in higher doses. The dosage will depend on the individual™s age and the condition being treated, so it's important to follow the prescribed dosage instructions closely.

Common uses:

• Allergic rhinitis (seasonal or perennial allergies)
• Chronic urticaria (hives)

Common side effects:

• Drowsiness or fatigue
• Dry mouth
• Headache

Levocetirizine is generally well-tolerated, but in some cases, it can cause drowsiness or dry mouth. While it is less likely to cause sedation compared to older antihistamines, it is still advised to avoid alcohol or other sedatives when taking this medication.

It's also important to note that Levocetirizine should be used with caution if you have kidney problems, as the dosage may need to be adjusted.
