Ingredients Spotlight

Active Ingredient

Cetirizine HCl 10 mg (in each tablet)

When you have an allergic reaction, your immune system produces chemicals known as histamines to fight the allergen, and these are what cause your symptoms. Cetirizine helps relieve these symptoms by blocking the effects of histamines, so your symptoms don’t develop.

Product Details

Suitable for kids and toddlers ages 2+, each chewable allergy relief tablet contains 2.5 milligrams of the effective antihistamine cetirizine HCl to relieve common allergy symptoms including:

  • runny nose

  • sneezing

  • itchy and watery eyes

  • itchy nose and throat

Providing 24-hour relief, these children’s chewable allergy medicine tablets help relieve symptoms caused by pollen and other seasonal allergens, as well as indoor allergens such as mold, pet dander and dust.
