Ingredients

The active ingredient is Cetirizine, a second-generation antihistamine. It works by blocking histamine, the chemical responsible for allergic reactions such as itching, swelling, and runny nose. Compared to older antihistamines, it usually causes less drowsiness.

Working of this Medicine

Ceridal Tablet 10mg works by selectively blocking histamine H1 receptors in the body. Histamine is released during allergic reactions and causes symptoms like sneezing, watery eyes, skin itching, and swelling. By blocking this action, Cetirizine provides quick and long-lasting relief. Its non-sedating profile makes it suitable for daily use in patients needing continuous allergy management.
