Cetrizine 10mg
Hi, I have allergy from Dust, Pollen etc. i.e. running nose, watery eyes. I need to take Cetrizine 10mg every 3rd or 4th day to get rid off of this frequent problem. Taking it for almost 1 year. Is there any severe side effect of long term usage of this medication? Is there any better option available? Thanks
