Levket Tab(Levocetirizine) Usage Guide: Benefits and Side Effects

Levket, Levocetirizine is a third-generation antihistamine used primarily to manage and alleviate symptoms associated with allergies, such as sneezing, runny nose, itchy or watery eyes, and hives. It's known for its high specificity for the H1 histamine receptor and minimal passage through the blood-brain barrier, which reduces the risk of sedation compared to earlier generation antihistamines.

Mechanism of Action
Levocetirizine works by selectively inhibiting the H1 histamine receptors, preventing histamine (a substance released during an allergic reaction) from producing its effect on the nose, sinuses, skin, and other areas of the body. This action helps to reduce the symptoms of allergic reactions.

Common Uses
Seasonal and Year-round Allergies: To relieve symptoms such as sneezing, runny nose, and itchy or watery eyes.
Chronic Urticaria (Hives): To reduce the itching and appearance of hives.

Dosage Instructions
Levocetirizine is typically taken once daily, with or without food. The standard dose for adults and children 6 years of age and older is 5 mg. For children 2 to 5 years old, a lower dose may be recommended. It's essential to follow your healthcare provider's instructions regarding the dosage and duration of treatment.

Benefits
Provides effective relief from allergy symptoms with minimal drowsiness.
Long-acting, with a duration of action that supports once-daily dosing.
Suitable for treating both seasonal and year-round allergies.

Potential Side Effects
While levocetirizine is generally well-tolerated, some individuals may experience side effects, including:

Drowsiness (less common compared to first-generation antihistamines).
Dry mouth.
Fatigue.
Headaches.
Sometimes, children may experience excitability rather than drowsiness.
