Could taking 10mg of Cetirizine Hydrochloride clear up a UTI or would I need a stronger antibiotic initially? ## Hello, Larissa! How are you? Sorry about the UTI. However, Cetirizine is not an antibiotic. It's an antihistamine that's used to treat allergies. Learn more Cetirizine details here. Thus, it won't do anything to treat a UTI. Have you consulted your doctor? They'll need to confirm the presence of an infection and prescribe you an appropriate antibiotic, if one is present.

I am taking ginkocer for the pst 10years. It was prescribed for the inflamation of gland below the ear. When i stop the medication, I get swelling blow the ear. Can I stop taking gincocer? ## Hello, Madram! How are you? Ginkocer is not a medication, it is just a nutritional supplement that contains Ginkgo Biloba, so it really isn't proven to treat any medical condition. Have you consulted your doctor? You should have that gland checked out to see what's causing it to swell, it could be due to an infection, allergies or other issues causing your body to react with an immune response.

Doctor prescribed TAZLOC BETA 50. but another doctor told that Beta blockers are not good for patient prone to cold and Ashtamatic Allergy and prescribed Olvance 40 in morning and Olvance 20 at evening who is correct and which medicine she should continue. ## Hello, Adil!

According to benadryldosage.com, Benadryl dosage administration is something that most people should make sure they know properly if they ever want to use the drug properly. I know that the use of this drug varies by weight and it am so much in love with this drug basically because of is effectiveness. It works whenever symptoms of allergies do occur to my dogs and I always not bothered because of its effectiveness. Another person using Benadryl for your dogs?, let me hear from you.

chlorpheniramine and phenylephrine - (KLOR fen IR a meen and FEN il EFF rin) 1. Chlorphenamine (INN) or chlorpheniramine (USAN, former BAN), commonly marketed as its salt chlorphenamine maleate (CPM; Chlor-Trimeton, Piriton, Chlor-Tripolon), is a first-generation alkylamine antihistamine used in the prevention of the symptoms of allergic conditions such as rhinitis and urticaria.

Hi my three year old son gets viral nd cold cough very frequently. dis time the duration was 20 days. he is now suffering frm viral again. his immunity is very weak. what should i do to increase his immunity. he is always on some or the other medicine. ## Frequent colds and such are normal for children, since they frequently put things in to their mouths and associate with other children that may be carrying it. There's really not much you can do to change it, except for being careful to not take him around sick people and to make sure to clean and sterilize his toys and such. Have you consulted his doctor to make sure something more serious isn't going on?

Can I also take Claritin D medicine with dimetapp cold and allergy together? ## Hi Anne, From what I could gather, there are no drug interactions listed between the active ingredients in Claritin-D (loratadine + pseudoephedrine) and Dimetapp Cold & Allergy (brompheniramine + phenylephrine). So with that said, you shouldn't experience any problems taking the two medications together. However, I would always recommend consulting with your doctor first before making any changes to your current regimen. This way if certain side effects do occur, he or she would at least be aware of the situation ahead of time. I hope this helps!
