Abstract :
Madam, cetirizine hydrochloride, an antihistamine, is the active constituent of Zyrtec® that functions as competitive peripheral H1 receptor inhibitor.Cetirizine is known to have reduced blood-brain barrier penetration due to its larger mass, lipophobic properties and increased attraction for peripheral H1 receptors.
