Cetcip L

Product Overview

Cetcip L 5 mg is a medication containing the active ingredient Levocetirizine 5 mg, designed to effectively counter allergic reactions and their associated symptoms.

Uses

Cetcip L 5 mg is prescribed for the treatment of allergic reactions, specifically symptoms such as a runny or itchy nose, sneezing, itchy or watery eyes, and itching of the throat or palate. The medication is also used to provide relief from chronic idiopathic urticaria, which manifests as raised red, itchy patches on the skin.

How it Works

The active component, Levocetirizine, in Cetcip L 5 mg operates by hindering the actions of histamine, a substance naturally produced by the body in response to allergens. Histamine is predominantly responsible for inducing allergic symptoms. By obstructing its function, Levocetirizine effectively alleviates these symptoms.

Dosage and Administration

Cetcip L 5 mg tablets should be ingested orally. The general recommendation is a single dose, taken once daily, preferably during the evening. This can be consumed with or without food. It’s essential to adhere to your healthcare provider’s instructions and to never exceed the prescribed dosage. If a dose is forgotten, take it at the earliest. However, if the time for the next dose is near, it’s advised to skip the missed dose and maintain the regular schedule.
