Voricet M Syrup is a medication used to treat symptoms of allergy, asthma, and skin allergies in children. Voricet M Syrup is commonly prescribed in children to treat symptoms of allergy such as runny nose, sneezing, itching, swelling, congestion, and watery eyes. It may also help in the treatment of asthma and skin allergies.
Voricet M Syrup contains Levocetirizine and Montelukast. Together these two relieve sneezing and runny nose caused due to allergies. Levocetirizine is an antiallergic that blocks a chemical messenger (histamine) responsible for runny nose, watery eyes, and sneezing. Montelukast is a leukotriene antagonist that works by blocking another chemical messenger (leukotriene). This reduces inflammation (swelling) in the airways and nose and improves symptoms.
Can I give cough and allergy medicine together, and if so, what is the correct dosage?
No, do not mix cough and allergy medicines. These medications often contain similar ingredients, which could result in double dosing of active components and potentially serious side effects.
Can I adjust the dosage of Voricet M Syrup myself if my child starts feeling better?
No, you must follow your doctor's prescribed dose. Do not increase or decrease the dosage by yourself as it could impact your child's health. While increasing the dose may cause unwanted effects like sedation and depression, decreasing the dose or stopping it suddenly can lead to a rebound reversal of all symptoms.
