The expiration date on drugs is set for the point at which 90% of the drug remains.
You see, over time, drugs can degrade. (Think about when you let food sit out for a long period of time. It goes bad) It may not hurt you, however, there are some cases where the drug can degrade to a harmful product. It is best not to use expired medicine.
So, it may not hurt you, it may not help you, but it is best not to take the chance.
The best way to relieve seasonal allergies is to take an allergy medication such as Claritin (loratadine) or Zyrtec (cetirizine).
Zyrtec
There is no relation between penicillin allergy and cyclobenzaprine allergy. There is no problem if you're only allergic to penicillin.
I just called a Nurse Helpline that I get through my employer. The registered Nurse informed me that I could safely take Advil Congestion with Zyrtec Allergy. The active ingredients in Zyrtec Allergy are: Cetirizine HCI 10mg (Antihistamine). The active ingredients in Advil Congestion are: Ibuprofen 200mg and Phenylephrine HCI 10mg.
i was traveling in Europe and the pharmacy gave me Ebastel for my allergies. I asked for something stronger than Zyrtec (or Zirtec as it's spelled in Europe), as my allergy medicine from the USA that I was using, Claritin, was not strong enough either.
The generic drug cetirizine is an allergy drug better known by the brand name Zyrtec.
In minute doses yes, but try Zyrtec (cetirizine) for allergy help.
Dogs can have either Zyrtec or Robitussin DM (or CF). These medications are for two different purposes, they can't be used interchangeably. Zyrtec is an allergy medication, and Robitussin is a cough suppressant. Your vet can advise you of the proper medication and dose for your dog, based on it's weight and the condition your dog has.
One may find that a good make of allergy relief is Allegra Allergy. It has quite a few different varieties to choose from. There is also Zyrtec available, among many others.
Allergy medications such as Zyrtec or benadryl. This will help ease the symptoms of the allergic reaction.
Seasonal allergies are nver any fun. An over the counter allergy medicine like Claratin or Zyrtec will help with the sneezing. And alternative rememdy that helps is using a netti pot daily to flush your sinuses.
I'm afraid that, even though it's unlikely it would be serious, the pseudoephedrine in the Zyrtec D and the dextromethorphan in the Mucinex could interact with each other. However normal Zyrtec with just cetirizine would be perfectly safe.
