Zyrtec (an antihistamine) and Nurofen (an ibuprofen-based pain reliever) can be given to children, but it's crucial to follow the appropriate dosage instructions for each medication based on the child's age and weight. Always consult with a pediatrician before administering any medications to ensure safety and avoid potential interactions. Additionally, monitor your child for any adverse reactions.
