A member asked:
Should i be worried to give my son zyrtec (cetirizine) every night until we see his doctor in a month?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Probably: Zyrtec (cetirizine) is an OTC and if used in the proper doses for the proper indications it should be fine. Having said that no medicine is 100 % safe and there is no guarantee that an adverse event could occur.
