Brief Answer: Follows. Detailed Answer: Dear Sir , Thank you for posting your query on XXXXXXX . Well looking into your query I will like to tell you that it can be a feature of angioneurotic edema that you are getting lip swelling on and off . It seems to be allergy triggered that you get relief from taking Tab ZERTEC , it has got CETRIZINE . I think you should consult an immunologist for this and get you allergy profile done and avoid all your allergic triggers . Take care. Dr. Shruti Take care. Dr. Shruti
