Is Zyrtec Advisable When Diagnosed With Kidney Failure?
I have recently been diagnosed with kidney failure-stage 3. I have had a headache for two weeks due to sinus pressure with the unusually warm temperature and am unable to take any ibuprofen or other nsaids. Tylenol is not helping. Is Zyrtec damaging to the kidneys?

Hello,
Zyrtec as antihistamine should be used with caution in a kidney failure patient, as the dose adjustment is of prime concern.
There is noticeable excess sleep with the patient of the end-stage renal disease who consumed Zyrtec.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
