Buy Cetirizine Allergy Relief for Children 5mg/5ml Oral Solution
Cetirizine Allergy Relief for Children provides fast, effective relief from allergy symptoms in both children and adults. It helps manage hay fever, pet allergies, dust allergies, and certain skin reactions such as hives or rashes. The medicine works quickly to ease sneezing, runny noses, itchy or watery eyes, and general allergy discomfort so you or your child can feel better throughout the day.How Cetirizine Allergy Relief for Children works
This medicine contains cetirizine hydrochloride, an antihistamine that blocks the effects of histamine - a chemical released by your body when you have an allergic reaction. By stopping histamine from causing its usual effects, cetirizine helps prevent itching, swelling, and inflammation. It’s classed as a non-drowsy antihistamine, so it generally won’t make you or your child feel sleepy.Directions
