Cetcip 10 mg Tablet

Cetcip 10 mg Tablet is an oral allergy medicine that contains cetirizine 10 mg in each tablet. Cetirizine is a second-generation antihistamine used to relieve symptoms of allergic conditions such as sneezing, runny nose, itchy or watery eyes, and itching from hives. This Cetcip 10 mg Tablet is taken by mouth and is commonly used for seasonal allergies and other allergy-related symptoms.
