Medical applications
HeadacheRednessAllergic
Levocet 5mg Tablet contains Levocetirizine, a potent third-generation non-sedating antihistamine used primarily for the treatment of allergic conditions. Levocetirizine acts as a selective inverse agonist of peripheral histamine H1-receptors, thereby inhibiting the effects of histamine, a key mediator in allergic responses. This medication is indicated for the relief of symptoms associated with seasonal allergic rhinitis, perennial allergic rhinitis, and chronic idiopathic urticaria, including sneezing, rhinorrhea, nasal pruritus, and ocular symptoms such as itching and redness.

It is well-tolerated in adults and children over six years of age; however, caution is advised in patients with renal impairment, where dose adjustment may be necessary.
