Hi,

Allercet contains cetirizine which belongs to a group of medications known as antihistamines is used to treat various allergic conditions such as hay fever, conjunctivitis, some skin reactions and reactions to bites and stings. It relieves watery eyes, runny nose, sneezing and itching. It is safe if used as prescribed by your doctor. Moreover, it is unlikely to harm you if you take it for long time. Allercet for only as long as you need it. Montelukast can be taken along with it, when only Allercet isn't sufficient to subside your sufferings.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
