Cetirizine is a second-generation antihistamine widely used in the treatment of allergic conditions such as seasonal allergic rhinitis, chronic urticaria, hay fever, and other upper respiratory allergies. It works by selectively blocking peripheral H1 histamine receptors, thereby reducing symptoms such as sneezing, nasal congestion, itching, watery eyes, and skin rashes without causing significant drowsiness. Cetirizine is known for its quick onset of action and long-lasting effects, making it ideal for once-daily dosing. It is commonly formulated into tablets, oral syrups, chewables, and suspension forms for both adult and pediatric use. In pharmaceutical manufacturing, Cetirizine is preferred for its non-sedating properties and consistent therapeutic profile, allowing it to be included in a wide range of allergy and cold-relief products. It is also used in combination drugs for treating sinusitis and flu-like symptoms.
Cetirizine appears as a white, odorless, crystalline powder and is practically insoluble in water, but soluble in ethanol and other organic solvents. It is supplied in bulk for pharmaceutical industries and is manufactured in accordance with global pharmacopeia standards including USP, EP, and IP. Cetirizine is also used in veterinary medicine for managing allergic dermatitis and other hypersensitivity reactions in animals. It has minimal drug interactions and is well-tolerated by most patients, with a favorable safety and efficacy profile. The product is available in pharma-grade quality with appropriate documentation such as Certificate of Analysis (COA), Technical Data Sheet (TDS), and Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS), along with regulatory certifications like Halal, Kosher, and GMP on request.
It is packed in airtight, moisture-resistant packaging in bulk quantities suitable for large-scale pharmaceutical production. Storage should be in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area, away from direct sunlight and moisture, to ensure a typical shelf life of 24 months. Akhil Healthcare Pvt.
