Levocetirizin Hexal (Levocetirizine Dihydrochloride)

Levocetirizine selectively blocks peripheral H1 histamine receptors, preventing histamine from binding and triggering the inflammatory cascade that causes the typical signs of allergy, thereby reducing nasal congestion, itching and skin wheals.

The appropriate dose of Levocetirizin Hexal is determined by a qualified prescriber based on the patient’s age, weight, renal function and clinical response. Patients should follow the healthcare professional’s instructions.

Safety data for levocetirizine in pregnancy and lactation are limited. Women who are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding should discuss potential risks and benefits with their healthcare provider before using the product.

Levocetirizin is the active enantiomer of cetirizine, offering similar efficacy with a potentially lower incidence of sedation. Compared with first‑generation antihistamines, it provides better selectivity for peripheral H1 receptors and fewer central nervous system effects.

Store Levocetirizin Hexal at ambient temperature, below 25 °C, in the original packaging. Keep the product away from moisture, direct sunlight and heat sources to maintain stability.

Levocetirizin Hexal is taken orally, usually with or without food, as directed by a healthcare professional. Swallow the tablet whole with a glass of water; do not crush or chew unless the product label specifically permits.

Serious but rare risks include angioedema, severe skin reactions such as Stevens‑Johnson syndrome, anaphylaxis, thrombocytopenia, hepatic injury and cardiac arrhythmias. Patients should seek immediate medical attention if they experience swelling of the face or throat, rash, or any signs of an allergic reaction.

Levocetirizin Hexal should be avoided in individuals with known hypersensitivity to levocetirizine or any of the tablet’s excipients. Caution is also advised for patients with severe renal impairment, and it is not recommended for use in children below the age specified in the product labeling without medical supervision.
