Cetirizine (MRX) 10mg/ml Syrup (Oral Drops) Grape 10ml


Product Description:

Cetirizine (MRX) Oral Drops is a fast-acting antihistamine used to relieve the symptoms of allergy-related conditions such as hay fever, allergic rhinitis, and conjunctivitis. The product contains Cetirizine Hydrochloride, a second-generation antihistamine that works by blocking histamine, a substance in the body that causes allergic symptoms like itching, swelling, and runny nose.

  • Formulation: 10mg of Cetirizine per ml.

  • Volume: 10ml per bottle.

  • Flavor: Grape-flavored for easier consumption, especially in children.

  • Type: Oral drops (syrup form) for easy dosage adjustment.


Indications:

Cetirizine (MRX) 10mg/ml Syrup is primarily used for the treatment of:

  1. Allergic Rhinitis (Hay Fever):

    • Relief from symptoms like sneezing, itchy or runny nose, and nasal congestion caused by allergies.

  2. Allergic Conjunctivitis:

    • Red, itchy, and watery eyes caused by allergies.

  3. Urticaria (Hives):

    • Treatment for itching, swelling, and red welts on the skin caused by allergic reactions.

  4. Other Allergic Conditions:

    • Effective for other allergy-related symptoms such as insect stings or mild allergic skin reactions.


Dosage and Administration:

Adults and Children over 6 years:

  • Recommended dose: 10 mg (1 ml or 20 drops) once daily, or as directed by your healthcare provider.

Children aged 2-6 years:

  • Recommended dose: 5 mg (0.5 ml or 10 drops) once daily.

Children under 2 years:

  • Not recommended unless prescribed by a healthcare professional.

Elderly patients or those with kidney issues:

  • A reduced dose may be recommended, typically starting with 5 mg (0.5 ml) once daily, especially for those with renal impairment.


Side Effects:

While Cetirizine (MRX) is generally well tolerated, some individuals may experience side effects, including:

Common side effects:

  1. Drowsiness – Although Cetirizine is a second-generation antihistamine, some individuals may still feel drowsy.

  2. Dry Mouth – A mild side effect that usually resolves after discontinuing the medication.

  3. Headache – Some users may experience headaches during treatment.

  4. Dizziness – A feeling of lightheadedness or vertigo.

  5. Fatigue – Some people may feel tired or sluggish after taking the medication.

  6. Stomach upset – Mild nausea or digestive discomfort.

Serious side effects (Rare but requiring medical attention):

  • Severe allergic reactions – Symptoms may include swelling of the face, lips, tongue, or throat, difficulty breathing, or severe rash.

  • Severe dizziness – A sudden drop in blood pressure causing dizziness or fainting.

  • Heart palpitations – An irregular heartbeat or rapid pulse.

If any of these serious side effects occur, immediate medical attention is necessary.


Contraindications:

Cetirizine (MRX) should be avoided in the following cases:

  1. Hypersensitivity to Cetirizine:

    • Do not use if you are allergic to Cetirizine, Hydroxyzine, or any other ingredients in the product.

  2. Severe Renal Impairment:

    • People with severe kidney disease should avoid using Cetirizine, or it should only be used under strict medical supervision. A reduced dose may be required for those with moderate to severe renal impairment.

  3. Severe Hepatic Impairment:

    • Individuals with severe liver disease should consult with a healthcare provider before using Cetirizine, as dosage adjustments may be necessary.

  4. Children Under 2 Years:

    • This product is not recommended for children under 2 years of age unless specifically prescribed by a doctor.

  5. Pregnancy and Breastfeeding:

    • Cetirizine is generally considered safe during pregnancy (Category B), but should only be used if the benefits outweigh the risks.

    • It is excreted in breast milk, so it should be used with caution in breastfeeding mothers. Consult with a doctor before using during pregnancy or lactation.


Precautions:

  1. Driving and Operating Machinery:

    • Although Cetirizine causes less drowsiness than first-generation antihistamines, some individuals may still experience sedative effects. Caution is recommended when driving or operating heavy machinery until you know how the medication affects you.

  2. Alcohol and CNS Depressants:

    • Avoid consuming alcohol or taking other central nervous system depressants while using Cetirizine, as this may enhance the sedative effects.

  3. Renal and Hepatic Conditions:

    • Cetirizine (MRX) should be used cautiously in individuals with kidney or liver conditions. Dosage adjustments may be required for these patients.


Conclusion:

Cetirizine (MRX) 10mg/ml Syrup (Oral Drops) is a convenient and effective treatment for managing allergy symptoms, including runny nose, sneezing, itchy eyes, and skin reactions. With its grape flavor and easy-to-administer drops, it is especially suitable for children and adults. As with any medication, it is essential to follow the prescribed dosage, monitor for potential side effects, and consult with a healthcare provider if you have any pre-existing conditions or concerns.
