I have got hey fever and started these tablets today. how long will it take for them to work. ## I hope you look up Zyrtec withdrawal Quitting Zyrtec and itching before you decide to take this. ## Yes, it contains Cetirizine, and it is most commonly used to treat allergies. The NIH warns that it may cause, side effects, such as nausea, headache, dry mouth, and drowsiness. You should start to experience some relief within 15 to 20 minutes of taking it, but it may take about 4 to 6 weeks for it to reach its full level of efficacy in your body. Itchy Scratchy, I am sorry about the problem you had from stopping. It is usually best to taper off of most medications to prevent these rebound effects. Have you tried any other allergy medications? There are others you can try, if you aren't c...

I am suffering from Allergy which causes running nose 365 days, mild headache and eye irritation. Tried some treatments and in vain started using Cetirizine Hydrochloride 10 mg tablets in regular basis like whenever there is running nose use the tablet for three days or week days till its severity comes down. Is it correct or can I use the medicine everyday one tablet for few months to get rid off this allergy. ## Certirizine is an antihistamine, commonly sold in the US under the brand name Zyrtec. Allergies are not curable, sometimes with immunologic treatments, your tolerance can be built up to lessen the severity of allergic reactions, but no medications, including this one, are actually going to cure it. The important this is to consult a doctor and discover what exactly you are all...

I have been experiencing itching problems since 3 days. It started from over the stomach area then spread out on legs, hands and back. Initially, I thought due rainy season, it is the mosquito bites. But later on, when it did not subside and started growing red and small dots appeared all over, then I realized that it something else. Now, I asked for Avil tablet to the chemist, instead he gave me Okacet. Please tell me if it is okay and cure my ailment. How many times should I take this tablet and for how long ? Please advise. I am waiting for your advise. I have still not started taking it.

I had taken generic Zyrtec for years and decided to stop many months ago. I had no withdrawal symptoms when I stopped until a week ago I broke out in a rash on my arms, then spread to my neck, chest and thighs. Terrible itching and redness. Wondering if my rash is related to the discontinuation of Zyrtec. Has anyone else experienced this? From what I have been reading, most people have withdrawal symptoms as soon as they stop taking this drug. ## Hi Rose, Sorry to hear about your situation. If you have a moment, I'd encourage you to check out the following related discussion thread pertaining to Zyrtec/Cetirizine withdrawal symptoms at: rxchat.com/204553 Apparently, the itching and rashes have affected quite a significant number of people. However, if I recall correctly, somewhere...

After taking Cetirizine Hydrochloride I am having awful eye problems ... straight lines are bouncing all over the place and my vision is so blurry which is apparently a rare side effect. Obviously I stopped the tablets (after taking 2). Has anyone else had this? I took it last year with no problems. How long before my eye sight gets better? Does anyone know? ## Vision issues can be a side effect of most antihistamines, if you only took 2 of them, it might be best for you to try a different medication, since that is rather severe. It usually takes about a week, or so, for things to improve, but if the issue persists, you should consult your doctor about trying a different medication. The FDA lists other side effects as possibly including headache, dry mouth, and drowsiness. Are you on an...

cetirizine hydrochloride? This is a round fairly small pill with ZS on one side and 906 on the other. I received them as generic zyrtec but I can't find it on the internet. Is it one possible generic pill for zyrtec? It doesn't seem like it's working for my allergies so I figured I should check it out. usually the generics are white oblong pills. I got them from walgreens. ## I received same pills and no they don't work the same as zertec. I can't find anything on it either. ## Its actually SZ 906 which is Cetirizine which is used for an allergy pill. But if that doesn't help you can take that pill (Cetirizine) and Singulare. ## Yes, this tablet is listed as containing 10mgs of Cetirizine, which is most commonly used to treat, or prevent allergic reactions. The F...

Could taking 10mg of Cetirizine Hydrochloride clear up a UTI or would I need a stronger antibiotic initially? ## Hello, Larissa! How are you? Sorry about the UTI. However, Cetirizine is not an antibiotic. It's an antihistamine that's used to treat allergies. Learn more Cetirizine details here. Thus, it won't do anything to treat a UTI. Have you consulted your doctor? They'll need to confirm the presence of an infection and prescribe you an appropriate antibiotic, if one is present.
