Product Information

It is not known if cetirizine crosses the human placenta to the foetus. The molecular weight (about 462 for the dihydrochloride salt) is low enough, however, that transfer to the foetus should be expected. Children aged 2 to 5 years should be given one 2.5ml spoonful (the small end of a medicine spoon) twice a day. After discontinuation of cetirizine, pruritus (intense itching) and/or urticaria have been reported. Clinical studies have produced no evidence of impaired attention, alertness and driving capabilities This medicinal product contains 1575 mg sorbitol (E 420) in each 5 ml which is equivalent to 315 mg/ml. Patients with hereditary fructose intolerance (HFI) should not take / be given this medicinal product. Sorbitol may cause gastrointestinal discomfort and mild laxative effect.

In addition to its anti-H 1 effect, cetirizine was shown to display anti-allergic activities: at a dose of 10 mg once or twice daily, it inhibits the late phase recruitment of eosinophils, in the skin and conjunctiva of atopic subjects submitted to allergen challenge. The terminal half-life is approximately 10 hours and no accumulation is observed for cetirizine following daily doses of 10 mg for 10 days. About two third of the dose are excreted unchanged in urine.

Before taking this medicine Children aged from 2 to 6 years: 2.5 mg twice daily (2.5 ml oral solution twice daily (a half spoon twice daily)). Studies in healthy volunteers show that cetirizine, at doses of 5 and 10 mg strongly inhibits the wheal and flare reactions induced by very high concentrations of histamine into the skin, but the correlation with efficacy is not established. The pharmacokinetics of the drug was similar in patients with mild impairment (creatinine clearance higher than 40 mL/min) and healthy volunteers. Patients with moderate renal impairment had a 3-fold increase in half-life and 70 % decrease in clearance compared to healthy volunteers.

In vitro receptor binding studies have shown no measurable affinity for other than H 1-receptors.
