Cetirizine Dihydrochloride 10mg Film-Coated Tablets, One a Day Hay Fever and Allergy Relief (6)

I take one a day to stop my back itching and it's brilliant thank you

I first got these Crescent branded hay fever tablets in May 2023 as a replacement for a brand from Bristol pharmaceuticals called Allacan. I took the Allacan ones every summer for years and was very happy with them but they seem to have been discontinued.This brand has a slightly different formulation (Cetirizine Dihydrochloride) compared to the Allacan (Cetirizine Hydrochloride). From what little I know of chemistry; this shouldn’t make a difference... Anyways, This brand does the job reasonably well and only fails to protect fully when Pollen is really high.As with many of the Cetirizine offerings on the market, this item is significantly cheaper if you buy multiples. If you buy 12x30-tab packs, they’re less than a third the price of a single 30-tab pack...Pros 👍:✔️ Reasonable Value, especially at higher multiples✔️ Reasonably effective✔️ Quite long expiry date (Feb 2027 expiry date at time of review – Sept 2024)Cons👎:❌ Maybe not as effective as other brands/formulationsIn Summary, an inexpensive, quite effective treatment for Hay fever, dust allergy etc.

Not sure these helped or did any thing

Good product

Told to buy this item by my doctor has worked also

If you suffer from hay fever you'll know the struggle to find something suitable to treat your symptoms. While these tablets have a slightly different active ingredient to other similar over-the-counter tablets, I see no difference in their use or relief ability.

Great product, service and price

Cetirizine is my antihistamine of choice as it is long acting and non-sedative. There are others out there that are also non-sedating (some may be a less sedating than cetirizine) but they all have comparable efficacy.The product licence holders name address and PL number is printed on the packact The expiry date is 02/27Unfortunately (like so many other pharmaceuticals produced) these cetirizine tablets contain titanium dioxide. The EU plans to ban E171 as a food additive, possibly in 2025 due to concerns about Ti nanoparticles and is investigating a pharmaceutical ban. TiO2 is not a useful ingredient - its just a white colourant - and if there are health concerns - why have it? The supplement industry largely has got rid of it. Well we will wait and see.At a price of £4.00 this is not the lowest price available on Amazon.
