How it works

Levocetirizine works by blocking histamine receptors in the body. Histamine is a substance released during allergic reactions that causes allergy symptoms. By preventing histamine from binding to its receptors, Xyzal reduces allergic responses such as sneezing, itching, and runny nose.

Dosage

The typical recommended dose for adults and children 12 years and older is one 5mg tablet taken orally once daily in the evening. For children 6-11 years old, the recommended dose is 2.5mg once daily. Always follow the dosage instructions provided by your healthcare provider.

Side Effects

Common side effects may include drowsiness, fatigue, dry mouth, and headache. Less common side effects can include nausea, dizziness, and nose bleeds. If you experience any severe or persistent side effects, contact your healthcare provider.

Warning

Do not exceed the recommended dose. Use caution when driving or operating machinery as Xyzal may cause drowsiness in some individuals. Avoid alcohol consumption while taking this medication as it may increase drowsiness. Patients with kidney problems may require dose adjustments.

Important Information

Xyzal can be taken with or without food. If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember, unless it’s almost time for your next dose. In that case, skip the missed dose and continue with your regular schedule. Do not double the dose to make up for a missed one. If you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding, consult your doctor before using Xyzal.
