About This Medicine

Product description & overview

Hicet Syrup contains Cetirizine 5mg/5ml, an effective second-generation antihistamine used primarily for the relief of allergic symptoms. Cetirizine acts as a selective antagonist of peripheral H1 histamine receptors, thereby inhibiting the effects of histamine, a key mediator in allergic reactions. This medication is indicated for the treatment of allergic rhinitis, including seasonal and perennial allergies, as well as chronic urticaria characterized by itching and hives. Hicet Syrup is formulated to provide rapid and sustained relief from symptoms such as sneezing, nasal congestion, runny nose, itchy and watery eyes, and skin rashes. Its non-sedating properties make it suitable for pediatric use, ensuring minimal central nervous system depression compared to first-generation antihistamines. The syrup form facilitates ease of administration in children and patients who have difficulty swallowing tablets. Dosage should be determined based on age and clinical condition, with adherence to recommended guidelines to avoid adverse effects. Common side effects may include mild drowsiness, dry mouth, and headache, which are generally transient. Hicet Syrup should be used cautiously in patients with renal impairment, and consultation with a healthcare professional is advised prior to use during pregnancy or lactation.
