Zyrtec-D (cetirizine / pseudoephedrine) "I've had asthma my whole life. I'm also moderately-severely allergic to cats and dogs (and dust, grass, etc.). With Montelukast/Singulair and Zyrtec-D, I can breathe and enjoy my pets. I took Singulair as a kid. When our allergist, whom our family saw for several decades, left the practice, I didn't have Singulair for a while. I started having severe problems breathing. I saw a pulmonologist who gave me Montelukast (generic of Singulair). I can breathe again! Without Zyrtec-D, I get a sinus infection within days. I've taken Zyrtec for well over a decade and a half. I've tried Claritin-D and Allegra-D. Without decongestant (-D), none are that effective for me. Claritin-D helped when I was younger. Benadryl helps occasionally but isn't meant for daily use. I'm upset it's no longer available for several months with a prescription, as I need it to breathe. I have inhalers too. They don't work as well as these."

Zyrtec-D 12 Hour (cetirizine / pseudoephedrine) "I just had the worst allergy attack of my life. For three days I tried several medicines with little effect. As soon as I took Zyrtec-D it was like magic, I felt 100% better in minutes and it lasted all day. Great stuff."

"PE is a stimulant, actually a psychoactive drug. A lot of commenters seem to not understand. Cetirizine is responsible for blocking your immune system, an antihistamine, and because of that you feel tired depending on your situation. PE makes you feel more awake, but, it is a listed substance and should not be taken on regular basis at all. Yes it works well, but also does Cetirizine and similar, something without making you tired. Speak to your MD."

Zyrtec-D (cetirizine / pseudoephedrine) "This medication has helped me a lot. I take it only once per day but I notice that after 12 hrs the congestion comes back, so I will try it every 12 hrs now. It works very well for me ."
