Question 1

can we use zyrtic morning or evening?

Accepted Answer

Zyrtec (cetirizine): Because the most prominent side effect of zyrtec (cetirizine) is drowsiness, i typically recommend that adults try it in the evening, so that if there is drowsiness, the impact of that drowsiness will be limited because you should be going to bed anyway.  If there is limited drowsiness, you could certainly take it during the day, but try an evening dose first to see how your body reacts to it.

Question 2

what going to happen to me i took three pils of zyrtic ?

Likely nothing: Doses of up to 20 mg of zyrtec (cetirizine) per day for the treatment of urticaria, have been well studied.  Taking 3 pills, or 30 mg, will likely just cause increased somnolence.
