Hello,
Zykast is a combination of Levocetrizine and Monteleukast. If your friend is suffering from allergic reaction, she can take this medicine once a day for 5 days.
If she does not feel any improvement in the reaction in a day or if symptoms worsen, she should see a dermatologist as steroid medications or injection may be needed.
I hope this information helps. Thank you for choosing HCM. I wish your friend feels better soon!
Best,
