Cetirizine per 5 mg syrup

Cetirizine · sold as Aglocet, Alcet, Alday Kid

What is Cetirizine per used for?

This medication is an antihistamine that treats symptoms such as itching, runny nose, watery eyes, and sneezing from hay fever and other allergies. It is also used to relieve itching from hives. Cetirizine does not prevent hives or prevent/treat a serious allergic reaction (e.g., anaphylaxis).

What it costs

Jan Aushadhi
Government generic

MRP is subject to change. These prices come from a dated snapshot — always check the price printed on the pack.

No single branded MRP is shown because this page covers the composition rather than one brand — branded prices vary by manufacturer and pack.

How much of it to take

This catalogue does not carry dosing information. How much to take, and how often, depends on you — your age, weight, kidney function and the other medicines you are on — so it comes from your prescription or your doctor, not from here.

Before you switch to a cheaper version

These products have the same composition, strength and dose form. Prices vary by brand and pharmacy — confirm cost and suitability with your doctor or pharmacist before switching.

Two cautions worth carrying into that conversation. A modified-release product (marked SR, XR, CR or ER) is not interchangeable with a plain one of the same strength. And for a small group of medicines with a narrow safe range — warfarin, thyroxine, phenytoin, lithium, some immunosuppressants — staying on one brand is the safer default, and any change should be monitored.

Listed alphabetically, with products sold under the molecule name first — those are typically the cheapest on the shelf.
