Hi Mar,

 

Thank you for your question! No, Zyrtec-D does not contain any nonsteroidal inti-inflammatory medications. Zyrtec-D has two active ingredients, cetirizine and psuedoephedrine. Cetirizine is an antihistamine that works to relieve runny, itchy eyes, sneezing, and runny nose. Pseudoephedrine is a decongestant that works to shrink the blood vessels in the nose and relieve symptoms of stuffy nose. You can read more about Zyrtec-D by following this link.

 

Best of luck with your surgery!!
