Cetirizine for allergies: Doctor explains dosage, drowsiness and withdrawal
Dr. Amit Saraf of Jupiter Hospital advised that cetirizine should typically be taken once daily for allergy relief. Overuse can lead to increased side effects like drowsiness and impaired alertness. Persistent allergy symptoms may require alternative treatments rather than increasing cetirizine dosage. Patients should consult their doctors if they experience significant sedation or unusual symptoms.
