General Surgeon 's  Response
Hello,

Cetirizine is widely used as an anti histamine medication to control allergy and itching problems. 20mg tablet can be safely consumed under medical supervision. Beware of possible dizziness which can be there after intake of the same and one must refrain from self driving in such conditions.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Bhagyesh V. Patel, General Surgeon
