the eyes; and hives.
What happens if I miss a dose?
If you are taking cetirizine on a regular schedule, take the
missed dose as soon as you remember. However, if it is almost
time for the next dose, skip the missed dose and take only
the next regularly scheduled dose. Do not take a double dose.
If you are taking cetirizine as needed, take the missed dose
if it is needed, then wait the recommended or prescribed amount
of time before taking another dose.
What happens if I overdose?
Seek emergency medical attention if an overdose is suspected.
Symptoms of a cetirizine overdose are not well known but may
include drowsiness.

Stop taking cetirizine and seek emergency medical attention
if you experience a rare but serious allergic reaction (difficulty
breathing; closing of the throat; swelling of the lips, tongue,
or face; or hives).
Other, less serious side effects may be more likely to occur.
Continue to take cetirizine and talk to your doctor if you
