Question : My wife generally tends to have allergic reaction after waxing. And she takes Avil tablets to assuage the allergy. However, today since it wasn't helping much, so she took a cetirizine tablet, too. Immediately after taking the cetirizine, she started feeling nauseous and dizzy.

Hi,

Thanks for your query.

Yes, cetrizine can cause such side effects. Need not worry, the side effects are self limiting and she will recover within few hours.

What was the dosage of cetrizine she has taken ?
