Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXX,
Thanks for writing in to us.

I have read through your query in detail.
Please find my observations below.

1. Cetirite L contains medicine levocetirizine which is an anti histamine and reduces chances of allergy.

2. Though is is supposed to be a non sedative medicine, few people have drowsiness after taking it. Nausea might also be an undesired manifestation and side effect which you have experienced. Hope you checked the expiry date of medicine before taking.

3. Other side effects of this medicine includes the following but not every one will get all the side effects.

(i) increased sleepiness,
(ii) dizziness,
(iii) fatigue,
(iv) dry mouth,
(v) sore throat,
(vi) fever,
(vii) cough,
(viii) nose bleeding,
(ix) diarrhoea and vomiting,
(x) constipation,
(xi) ear infection,
(xii) painful urination and urinary retention,
(xiii) blurred vision,
(xiv) Swelling in airway,
(xv) increased sensation and muscle weakness
