cetirizine and Insect Bites and Stings

cetirizine has been researched along with Insect Bites and Stings in 12 studies

Cetirizine: A potent second-generation histamine H1 antagonist that is effective in the treatment of allergic rhinitis, chronic urticaria, and pollen-induced asthma. Unlike many traditional antihistamines, it does not cause drowsiness or anticholinergic side effects.
cetirizine : A member of the class of piperazines that is piperazine in which the hydrogens attached to nitrogen are replaced by a (4-chlorophenyl)(phenyl)methyl and a 2-(carboxymethoxy)ethyl group respectively.

Insect Bites and Stings: Bites and stings inflicted by insects.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"This comparative study in mosquito-bite-sensitive adults shows that cetirizine and ebastine decrease significantly whealing and accompanying pruritus, and that cetirizine seems to be the most effective against pruritus."5.10Comparison of cetirizine, ebastine and loratadine in the treatment of immediate mosquito-bite allergy. ( Burri, P; Karppinen, A; Kautiainen, H; Petman, L; Reunala, T, 2002)
"Cetirizine is an effective drug against mosquito bites by decreasing wealing and also the size and pruritus of the delayed bite papules."2.68Effect of cetirizine on the inflammatory cells in mosquito bites. ( Karppinen, A; Palosuo, T; Rantala, I; Reunala, T; Vaalasti, A, 1996)
