Gixer Solution 60ml

Gixer Solution 60ml contains Cetirizine, a second-generation antihistamine used to relieve symptoms of allergic reactions. Cetirizine is known for its effectiveness in managing symptoms associated with allergic rhinitis and chronic urticaria (hives). The 60ml liquid formulation allows for flexible dosing, making it suitable for both adults and children who have difficulty swallowing tablets. Gixer provides quick relief from allergy symptoms without causing significant drowsiness.
