Dear Lady,

Thanks for posting your query on this website. I fully appreciate your concerns.

xyzal, being an antihistaminic, causes sleepiness. You have not mentioned the prescribed dose.

The side effects of the drug usually get reduced with time. However, if the prescribed dose continues to cause excessive sleep, you may reduce the dose to 1/2 at bedtime. Then revert to the prescribed dose after 7-10 days.

I am confident that you will certainly benefit from the advice.

May I assure you that I am always available for your assistance and will try my best to cure your condition to the best of my experience and knowledge.

Please feel free to revert back to me in case of further clarifications, if any.

HAVE A NICE DAY AND A SPEEDY RECOVERY.

Fond Regards,

Dr.(Col) R Karanwal
