What is the effect of the medication levocetirizine?

Levocetirizine is an antihistamine medication primarily used to relieve allergy symptoms. It works by blocking histamine, a substance in the body that causes allergic symptoms. This helps reduce symptoms such as sneezing, runny or itchy nose, itchy or watery eyes, and itching of the throat. Levocetirizine is often used for seasonal allergies (such as pollen allergies) as well as for year-round allergies like dust or pet dander. Additionally, it can be effective in reducing symptoms of chronic hives (urticaria), a skin condition characterized by red, itchy welts.
