Cetirizine, the active ingredient of the solution is an antihistamine. It blocks the effects of a substance called histamine which occurs naturally in the body. Histamine is involved in allergic reactions.
Anti-Hist Allergy oral solution is used to treat adults and paediatric patients aged 2 years and over who have hay fever (seasonal allergic rhinitis), year-round allergies such as dust or pet allergies (perennial allergic rhinitis) and urticaria (swelling, redness and itchiness of the skin).
Antihistamines like Anti-Hist Allergy oral solution relieve the unpleasant symptoms and discomfort associated with these conditions, such as sneezing, irritated, runny and blocked up nose, itchy, red and watering eyes and skin rashes.
You must talk to a doctor if you do not feel better or if you feel worse after 3 days.
