Scientific Evidence

Cetirizine, the active ingredient in Zodak tablets, is a second-generation antihistamine that has been extensively studied for its efficacy in managing allergic conditions. Research published in the Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology has shown that cetirizine is effective in reducing symptoms of allergic rhinitis and chronic urticaria with a low incidence of sedation compared to first-generation antihistamines.

Additional Information

Zodak tablets provide 24-hour relief from allergy symptoms without causing drowsiness, making it suitable for daytime use. It is important to store this medication at room temperature away from moisture and heat.

Pharmacological Effects: Cetirizine works by blocking the action of histamine, a substance in the body that causes allergic symptoms. By inhibiting histamine, cetirizine helps alleviate symptoms such as sneezing, itching, and runny nose.

Clinical Trials: Clinical trials have demonstrated the effectiveness of cetirizine in managing allergic conditions. A study published in the Annals of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology found that cetirizine provided significant symptom relief in patients with seasonal allergic rhinitis compared to a placebo.
