What Is Zyrtec?

Zyrtec is a medication that contains the active ingredient cetirizine hydrochloride. Zyrtec is a metabolite of the antihistamine hydroxyzine and works by blocking H₁ (histamine) receptors selectively in the periphery of the body. Zyrtec may help in relieving symptoms caused by chronic urticaria, seasonal and perennial allergic rhinitis. In function, Zyrtec is similar to the medications loratadine (Claritin), fexofenadine (Allegra), and levocetirizine (Xyzal).

Once metabolized, Zyrtec's metabolites are largely excreted in the urine although some can be found in the feces with an elimination half-life of under nine hours in many people. The typical starting dose is Zyrtec 5 mg or Zyrtec 10 mg daily although the exact regimen depends on the health needs of the patient and the judgement of the prescribing medical provider.
