You can take 10 mg twice daily. But, cetrizine is usually taken at night as it causes drowsiness in some patients.
Avoid if you're a driver or a heavy machine operator.
Next Steps
instead of plain cetrizine, you can take a cetrizine and montelukast combo for better results. But, this should be taken only at night.
