Common Questions and Answers about Zyrtec and ingredients

zyrtec

Avatar n tn I cm chemically sensitive and find many creams irritating. I searched on-line to find out the ingredients in pramasone and eletone and could find nothing. I received samples of these from a dermatologist and without the ingredients. I am unable to find them on the web. Is there a site open to the public that lists ingredients? I was also advised to take Zyrtec and wondered if Zyrtec had any more benefit for skin reactions thank Claritin. Claritin didn't help at all.
Avatar n tn I went and seen a doctor about this and was told I have allergies, I was perscribed the generic for singulair for 10 days, and zyrtec for about 2 weeks to see if I got better. I opted to take the medicine at night (tonight)...and i can't sleep and my throat is so dry even after water. I really dis like medicine...I get anxious...what are some other options to feel better?... HELP!
Avatar n tn Someone on here told me that I should take an antihistamine such a levocetrizine or cetrizine. I took 1 Zyrtec and I felt fine for a couple of hours but my arms eventually swelled up and started to itch again. I'm not sure if it just didn't work or I didn't take enough because the pill was only 10mg. I drank enough to become intoxicated but the reaction this time was not as bad as before.
Avatar m tn s had problems already and go to the store or whatever and look for commonalities in the ingredients. Her problems could be due to the chemicals, fragrances or both. The chemicals would be the same from soap to soap, but the fragrances might be different...just note whether or not the soaps have a lot of fragrance. Once you notice common ingredients, your gf should try soaps without and without those things and see how her skin reacts.
Avatar f tn Ive got 3 Itchy bumps on left hand elbow. Taking Zyrtec since 3 days doesn't help. When I apply neosporin hydrocortisone anti itch cream. It helps a lot. What should I do? This is making me stressful. Is it allergy or something else? Please help. I will be highly grateful to u.
Avatar f tn I don't know and I'm super sick too and I'm 33weeks I just been riding it out
Avatar n tn From doing researching on the internet, I think my little dog has Black skin disease. He is about 6 years old. He constantly scratches. He had fleas about 6 months ago and was treated by the Vet. Now he is fleas free but has small black patches on the skin between his leg joints and stomach area. The hair has become thin in these areas also. The rest of his skin is red and scaly.
Avatar f tn My doctor was OK with me taking zyrtec. You just have to make sure to drink lots and lots of water.
Avatar m tn Allergic dogs benefit from frequent bathing not only because of the anti-itch ingredients, but because bathing helps to reduce allergens that are accumulated on the skin and coat. Weekly bathing and daily rinses or wipedowns with a wet washcloth are usually recommended.
681148 tn?1437661591 It seems like Akira has seasonal allergies and dust allergies in addition to her food allergies. Because I really don't want to give her long term steroids, I decided to only give her the 1/4 tablet of Zyrtec that the vet told me to give her before. I try to wait 'til I just have to give it to her, because I know that people can build up a tolerance to antihistamines, so I figure that animals can, too.
877636 tn?1243526244 Hello, To treat the severe itching in psoriasis,take non sedating antihistamines like Claritin or Zyrtec,apply ice packs and take oatmeal baths.Also you can use Gold Bond Medicated Anti-Itch Cream and Aveeno Overnight Itch Relief (with oatmeal) for the itch relief.If still the condition persist then topical steroids and anesthetics may be needed but pls consult a dermatologist for that. I hope it helps.Take care and pls do keep me posted on how you are doing or if you have any additional doubts.
Avatar m tn Both Allegra and Zyrtec are 24 hour medications in my area. I have known several people who took 3 Zyrtec in one day, and my allergist says that you can't really OD on antihistimines. You should be sure to drink PLENTY of water and watch for signs of constipation and dehydration. You should make sure that your dr is well aware of how much of these meds you are taking to make sure that they are ok with any other medications you maybe taking.
5347058 tn?1381188426 I have a 2 year old male cat and he suffers from the occasional runny nose and watery eyes. It seems to start right about the time my allergies get bad. It lasts for a couple of days and then he is fine. I was just curious because he acts fine other than the few symptoms he has.
689528 tn?1364135841 10mg every day for the first five days and then every other day for the next five, in addition he gets a generic Zyrtec everyday. Now he just gets a zyrtec every day, and if his allergies act up beyond the zyrtec's control, like this time of year ,he gets a prednisone per day for 3 or 4 days and then every other day for two or until things calm down. Zyrtec can be expensive, but we actually found a generic brand at the dollar store! $1. for 14 pills, so we clear their shelves!
Avatar f tn Had been on Augmentin for a sinus infection, just finishing up the script, and take Crestor, Nexium, and Zyrtec on a regular basis. Symptoms started a few days after starting generic Zyrtec, which also caused unbelievable dryness that felt like I was dehydrated (no vomiting, though). A day after the chills, I noticed my urine was dark and my stools were very light, almost gray, and I started getting very itchy but no rash.
Avatar f tn Without the Zyrtec, my hives are not only unbearable but they also start to present in my throat, mouth and on my lips, so going without it is not really an option for me.
Avatar m tn My dry eye is treatable with Celluvisc and Refresh Gel drops and like all with dry eye ( moderate and above ) there are good and bad days--However I have run into a difficult situation related to the common cold. What meds can I take that will not effect my dry eye ???? I recently had a cold and took cold meds and my eyes burnt so bad ( even with drops ) that it was near unbearable . The Doc and Pharmacy both said it was the antihistomine and I quit the meds which relieved the dry eye symptoms.
535822 tn?1443976780 Okay I do live in a wram climate and yes I do put Air and heat on but why are my eyes each morning sore and itchy , I have tried varying eye drops, they do soothe somewhat , but it doesnt stay, could it be allergies, we are at that time of year ..
Avatar m tn Months ago my ALT was 26. I stopped using Zyrtec, and my doctor told me to use Atarax. However, its been a week and the rash is still the same. I am very worried about it. What shall I do?
Avatar f tn started taking zyrtec, seemed to help a little but starts up again so i also started taking zantac along with the zyrtec. i am still getting some hives and itching but now for about the past 3-4 wks now i'm also getting nausea, please help!
Avatar n tn Zyrtec can cause side effects like skin nodules, rash, pruritis (itching), acne, urticaria, photosensitivity reactions and eczema. So, the itchy red cheeks could be due to Zyrtec. Discuss your symptoms with your consulting doctor he may change the dose or the medications. Hope this helped and do keep us posted.
Avatar n tn I saw zyrtec at Walgreen's just last night. Some was out and some you had to ask for.
Avatar m tn There is no quantities on the website. Everything is chemical by the way and excess intake of the vitamins can lead to intoxication too. So it is better to know the ingredients especially if you also take another medicine.
