Levocetirizine Dihydrochloride 5 mg Tablets IP
RIQ-LEV-5 contains Levocetirizine Dihydrochloride 5 mg. It is a third-generation antihistamine tablet. It targets H1 receptors in the body and blocks them. These receptors are what histamine uses to trigger allergy symptoms. Once blocked, histamine cannot act. Sneezing stops. Itching settles. Runny nose clears up.
Unlike older antihistamines, Levocetirizine does not enter the brain easily. This means it controls allergies without making you feel drowsy or foggy. One tablet taken in the evening gives full 24-hour allergy relief.
It works for both seasonal and year-round allergies. Doctors also prescribe it for chronic skin hives and itching. Take it only on a doctor’s prescription.
