Hello!
Always be sure to take your pet to a Vet before administering any type of medition.
There could be other causes for allergy like symptoms, and you would not want to treat for the wrong problems. Also, not all human medication is safe for pets, so at the very least call your Vet and be sure before giving it to your pet.
Hope he feels better soon!

Dogs can take Zyrtec in small doses, but it will not be quite as helpful for a bee sting. Zyrtec is an antihistamine, which will help with congestion more successfully. A better choice to treat a bee sting is Benadryl.

Not sure but Benadryl is the best for dogs. Check with your vet on the dosage. I am not sure about Zyrtec. Benadryl has been the drug of choice for several types of vet issues.
