A member asked:
Can i take zyrtec (cetirizine) together with nose spray containing oxymetazoline hci ? not sure if i can take the 2 together while they both say for allergies
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Zyrtec (cetirizine) is an antihistamine and blocks histamine receptors, while oxymetazoline is a decongestant. There is no interaction and effects will be additive. However, prolonged use of oxymetazoline could lead to dependence.
