Xyzal (levocetirizine) "WONDERFUL so far. Had to stop Zyrtec (citirizine) because it dried my eyes. So far, Xyzal doesn't dry my eyes, and I have had zero side effects. Not sleepy, no other problems. Hooray."

"I've been told by at least two doctors that levocetirizine is for hives and skin type reactions to allergies and not so much for sinus and rhinos"

"So usually I take fexofenadine but its on the more expensive side for me so I wanted to try Xyzal. I usually take my meds at night, about 2 hours after taking this medicine I got super dizzy, enough to not want to drive. (Now this is on me, should have read the packet ingredients and instructions) I can't take Cetirizine because I get ungodly drowsy, but after taking the medicine I realized its part of that family. It made me dizzy, dry mouth and really tired. Should have read one here first, this was my first time ever trying it. I know you're supposed to take allergy medicine for 2 weeks to get used to it but these side effects are a little too much for me."
