Levocetirizine 5mg Tablet

Description

Gomont-5 tablet is an orally administered, non-sedating antihistamine used to relieve symptoms associated with allergic conditions. It contains levocetirizine dihydrochloride, the active R-enantiomer of cetirizine, known for its potent and selective blockade of peripheral H1 histamine receptors. By inhibiting the effects of histamine, the tablet helps reduce common allergy symptoms such as sneezing, runny or blocked nose, itchy or watery eyes, and irritation of the throat or nasal passages. It is also useful in managing chronic idiopathic urticaria, helping to minimize itching and the appearance of hives. Levocetirizine begins to work within one hour of administration, offering long-lasting relief for up to 24 hours, which allows for once-daily dosing. The tablet is typically taken in the evening, with or without food, depending on individual tolerance. While it is considered a low-sedation antihistamine, some users may still experience mild drowsiness, fatigue, or dry mouth. Most side effects are temporary and well-tolerated. This medication is generally safe for adults and adolescents above the recommended age, though caution is advised in individuals with kidney impairment, as dosage adjustments may be required. Levocetirizine should be used under the guidance of a healthcare professional during pregnancy or breastfeeding. It is important to avoid alcohol or other central nervous system depressants while taking the tablet, as these may increase drowsiness. Widely available as a prescription or over-the-counter product depending on regional regulations, Levocetirizine 5 mg is valued for its effectiveness, rapid onset of action, and convenient dosing schedule. It provides reliable relief for seasonal and perennial allergic rhinitis as well as chronic skin allergies, helping improve daily comfort and quality of life for individuals affected by persistent allergy symptoms.
