How does the Drug work
◉Cetirizine 5 mg is an antihistamine medication that works by blocking the action of histamine, a chemical produced by the body during an allergic reaction. Histamine causes symptoms such as sneezing, runny nose, and itching by binding to receptors in the body. Cetirizine blocks these receptors, preventing histamine from binding and reducing the symptoms of allergies. This medication is typically used to treat symptoms of seasonal allergies, such as hay fever, and can also be used to treat symptoms of chronic urticaria (hives). It is usually taken once a day, either with or without food.
