Uses of Alday 10mg Tablet

Alday 10mg Tablet is an allergic medication used to treat rhinitis, dermatitis, conjunctivitis, urticaria, eczema, and drug & food allergy. It alleviates symptoms in patients with allergies such as runny nose, sneezing, breathlessness, itchy skin and rashes.

The main ingredient in this medication is cetirizine. It is a low-sedating, long-acting H1-receptor antagonist and prevents allergic responses in the body by hindering the interaction of histamine.

Alday 10mg Tablet helps people by significantly reducing the allergic response from the body, allowing them to carry on with their daily activities. It also helps the appearance by ridding the skin of rashes or spots. You may take the medication depending on your symptoms; it usually doesn’t present with any notable adverse effects.

How Alday 10mg Tablet works

Alday 10mg Tablet contains cetirizine, a low-sedating, long-acting H1-receptor antagonist. This medicine works by blocking the effect of a chemical called histamine, which produces allergic reactions.

Histamine is part of the immune system that triggers the allergic response when something (an allergen) enters the body. All the coughing, sneezing, vomiting and runny nose that one might experience functions as a means of getting rid of this allergen from the body.

People with severe allergies experience symptoms due to these histamines' exaggerated function. The histamines bind with the H1 receptors and start the immune response to those allergens. That is why cetirizine is prescribed in cases like this. It competitively inhibits/blocks the interaction of histamine with its H1 receptors.

Histamine causes the allergic reaction, and Alday 10mg Tablet contains cetirizine (an antihistamine) which stops histamines from working.

Dosage

Take Alday 10mg Tablet as prescribed by your doctor. Never consume more than the prescribed dose. Swallow it whole with plenty of water; do not chew or crush it. You can take this medicine before or after your meals. You may feel slightly sleepy after taking this medication, so it is recommended to take it at night time.

If you forget to take this medication, take it as soon as you remember. If it is time for your next dose, ignore the one that you missed and continue with the next. To compensate for a missed dose, avoid taking twice the amount.

Taking more than the prescribed dose of this anti-allergic medicine may lead to worsening side effects like dizziness and sleepiness since cetirizine (the content of this medicine) is a mild sedative.

If you experience signs like extreme dizziness, difficulty in breathing and swelling of the face after taking this medicine, contact your doctor or visit the nearest hospital immediately.
